Who are the involved parties?

 * User:71.136.15.211, using also User:71.138.240.15, User:71.138.49.121 and User:69.232.66.4.

What's going on?
adds that there are "at least 10 undescribed species" to the article. I've been reverting this change as 1. we have a reference for the 17 described species, and 2. because for any given genus there can be 2, 10, 167 or 418 :) undescribed species. In my view the number of undescribed species cannot be verified. I've requested that the other user discuss this prior to making change but I have not got a response. I'd tried to add a compromise position (adding that there are some undescribed species), without giving a number, and added a request for a citation to support this position but no citation has yet been supplied for this supposition.

What would you like to change about that?
I'm more than happy to accept that there are some undescribed Teleocichla species providing there's a verifiable reference to support this. I think putting a number on it would be original research. I'd simply like the other user to communicate to reach a consensus on this.
