Scarlet Ibis (Eudocimus ruber) [XC222844]
     by id from Morrocoy NP, Falcon, Venezuela (call)

Subspecies
Forms superspecies with White Ibis (Eudocimus albus). A recent proposal is that they be merged into a single species on basis of close morphological and ecological similiraties and relatively frequent natural hybridization in zone of overlap in Venezuela. Another view is that they may simply be color morphs.

No subspecies.
