[Tweeters] Need a little wren help

Hey tweets, in trying to make out what the July 2023 AOS species lists are saying about House Wrens, I got lost in the scientific nomenclature and recommendations.

As best as I can make out, the AOS has decided to split House Wren into several new species. All the new species occur on Caribbean islands.

AOS seems to be holding off on designating the Brown-throated House Wren (Troglodytes aedon brunneicollis) a separate species but will most likely do so in the future when more data and thinking are completed.

Is this how you read their report too? - Connie, Seattle
