Abstract

This paper is the 10th report of the Taxonomic Sub-Committee of the BOU Records Committee. Species-level decisions are based on criteria outlined by Helbig et al. (2002). The ninth report of the Sub-Committee was published by Sangster et al. (2013).

Recommendations in this report fall into five categories: (1) recognition of higher taxa not recognized by Voous (Paroidea); (2) changes in generic allocation (Melanocorypha leucoptera, Calandrella rufescens); (3) changes in the taxonomic sequence of species (Alaudidae, Prunella); (4) changes in species limits (Struthio camelus, Thalassarche cauta, Poecile lugubris, Phylloscopus tenellipes, Sylvia cantillans, Oenanthe lugens, Passer italiae); and (5) changes in nomenclature (Sylvia cantillans moltonii).
