If you type in Orpheus to Species box under Explore, it autofills with “Warbling Vireo (orpheusvireo)”. If you type in “warbling vireo” the autofill doesn’t list “(orpheus)”. Any ideas why? And I can’t seem to find any info on where that name, orpheusvireo, comes from. Is it previous specific epithet?
