The Madagascar checklist is an appropriate subset of the full African Bird Club list, based on the ABC country checklists.

Either select the species to add by first selecting the authority to copy it from, then the particular species, or enter a new species directly below.

Select from

NB: Likely authorities hard-coded for now, but dropdown should ideally be restricted to parents of current authority only.

Species to add

If selecting from another authority, you can still update the information below before adding the species.

Species Name

NB: Species name is defaulted from the previous species row and should of course be overwritten!.

Scientific Name

NB: Genus is defaulted from the previous species row but may need overwriting; specific needs to be entered in either case.

Species Id

NB: Species id will be taken from the corresponding species on the authority being copied from, otherwise enter 0 for a totally new species.

Family

NB: Need a way to enter a new family if required.

Notes

NB: Notes only allow up to 255 characters, but there is no enforcement of this. Anything longer will be truncated without warning.

Delete species

Species Name

NB: Species name for the old taxon should be updated to differentiate it from the split taxa using a '/' or '[group]', e.g. Species A/Species B or Species A [group].

Scientific Name

NB: Scientific should also be updated similarly, e.g. Genus specific A/specific B or Genus specific A [group].

1st Split Species Id

NB: Split species must previously have been added through Add Species. Currently allow for split into 5 species.

2nd Split Species Id

NB: Ideally this should be done through a species lookup rather than direct entry of id.

3rd Split Species Id 4th Split Species Id 5th Split Species Id Old Taxon Notes

NB: Notes only allow up to 255 characters, but there is no enforcement of this. Anything longer will be truncated without warning.
