Dendrocopos macei and ficedula parva

Hi.

Was trying to put Dendrocopus macei (Fulvous-breasted woodpecker) and Ficedula parva (Red-throated flycatcher) on my Thailand list but I as surprised the base list does not include them. Are they there with another name?
At least in the world list they still have the same English and scientific names.

Thanks
Frederico

The forms that occur in Thailand are Freckle-breasted Woodpecker Dendrocopos analis (I think) and Taiga Flycatcher Ficedula albicilla.

Thanks. that must be it.

I am using Brian Robson's book for Thailand, and I read it's a bit outdated.

Although the former Manchester United and England midfielder did indeed manage the Thai national team, I don't think he managed to write a book on birds as well. You might mean (no relation) Craig. ;)

LOL. Right.

I was looking at the book, read Craig and wrote Brian...How about that?

Thanks
