Re: Ardea herodias in BOU list
Ardea herodias Linnaeus, 1758 appears in the hierarchy of the BOU list outside and at the same level as Aves, not in the Ardea container where I would expect it. It appears to be an error.
Past experience suggests I am as likely to become Prime Minister than get a response here from anyone in the dictionary team, but the weather is dreadful and I am just waiting for the rugby to start - and who knows? - maybe some answers will appear in time for Xmas ...
