Subspecies
Formerly placed with Kamao (Myadestes myadestinus), Omao (Myadestes obscurus) and Puaiohi (Myadestes palmeri) in a separate genus, Phaeornis. All previously regarded as conspecific, but differ vocally. Extinct form woahensis (often erroneously spelt oahensis), from Oahu, previously treated as a full species, but was probably a subspecies of present species. Maui population, also extinct, possibly represented an undescribed subspecies.
The following 3 subspecies are recognised:
- lanaiensis (Wilson, 1891) - Lanai, in Hawaiian Is. Last reported 1933.
- rutha (Bryan, 1908) - Molokai, in Hawaiian Is. Last reported 1994; possibly extinct.
- woahensis ! (Bloxam, A, 1899) - Formerly Oahu. Extinct; last reported 1825. Considered by some authors to be a distinct species, Amaui (Myadestes woahensis).
Similar Species
