 * Correct, they don't match- this list follows the guidelines of WP:MAMMAL that we start with the species listed in Mammal Species of the World 3rd ed. (2005), and then add/remove species where both the IUCN and ASM agree. The Pika list does not do this; for example it has the Flat-headed pika, O. flatcalvariam, but that's not in MSW or recognized by the IUCN, just ASM. So, it's not that this list is missing 5 species, it's that Pika has 5 species that it shouldn't. -- Pres N  14:46, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
