Talk:Olivaceous Cormorant

Olivaceous Cormorant is Synonym for Neotropic Cormorant
The bird formerly known as Olivaceous Cormorant, Phalacrocorax olivaceous, is now treated as Neotropic Cormorant, Phalacrocorax brasilianus--see AOU Check-list (1998). Given the synonymy, the account for Olivaceous Cormorant or Mexican Cormorant, Phalacrocorax olivaceous, should be deleted or redirected to the account for Neotropic Cormorant.

 * Agree that it would be best to merge the articles. If we decide to keep a separate article for the northern subspecies, then Mexican Cormorant would be a better title as Olivaceous Cormorant can also refer to the South American form. Tigershrike (talk) 12:56, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * As there were no objections, I've merged the two articles. Tigershrike (talk) 10:56, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
