Rufous-naped Wren
Rufous-naped wren has been split into three species: * Veracruz wren, ''Campylorhynchus rufinucha'' * Sclater's wren, ''Campylorhynchus humilis'' * Rufous-backed wren, ''Campylorhynchus capistratus'' *note: the name rufous-naped wren is retained for the Veracruz wren by some taxonomic authorities. Some taxonomic authorities do not recognize the split, including the American Ornithological Society The American Ornithological Society (AOS) is an ornithological organization based in the United States. The society was formed in October 2016 by the merger of the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU) and the Cooper Ornithological Society. Its .... {{Animal common name Birds by common name ...

Veracruz Wren
The Veracruz wren (''Campylorhynchus rufinucha'') is a songbird of the family Troglodytidae. It is endemic to Mexico. Taxonomy and systematics What is now the Veracruz wren was previously treated as one of eight subspecies of rufous-naped wren (that carried the binomial ''Campylorhynchus rufinucha''). A 2009 publication proposed that ''Campylorhynchus rufinucha'' ('' sensu lato'') be split into three species and the International Ornithological Committee (IOC) accepted the splits. Because the binomial ''C. rufinucha'' (''sensu stricto'') had scientific priority, it received the new English name Veracruz wren. What had been ''C. r. humilis'' was elevated to species status as Sclater's wren and the other six subspecies became subspecies of ''C. capistratus'', the rufous-backed wren. BirdLife International (BLI) has implemented the split but retains the English name rufous-naped wren for ''C. rufinucha''. However, the North American Classification Committee of the American Orn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

What had been ''C. r. humilis'' was elevated to species status as Sclater's wren. The reduced ''C. rufinucha'' received the new English name Veracruz wren and the other six subspecies became subspecies of ''C. capistratus'', the rufous-backed wren.

American Ornithological Society
The American Ornithological Society (AOS) is an ornithological organization based in the United States. The society was formed in October 2016 by the merger of the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU) and the Cooper Ornithological Society. Its members are primarily professional ornithologists, although membership is open to anyone with an interest in birds. The society publishes the two scholarly journals, '' The Auk'' and '' The Condor'' as well as the '' AOS Checklist of North American Birds''. In 2013, the American Ornithologists' Union announced a close partnership with the Cooper Ornithological Society, including joint meetings, a centralized publishing office, and a refocusing of their respective journals to increase efficiency of research. In October 2016, the AOU announced that it was ceasing to operate as an independent union and was merging with the Cooper Ornithological Society to create the American Ornithological Society.
