Antipodean Albatross Diomedea antipodensis, Amsterdam Albatross D. amsterdamensis, and Tristan Albatross D. dabbenena are split from Wandering (now Snowy) Albatross D. exulans (Clements 2007:9)
Summary: The four-way split of the Wandering Albatross complex means all great albatross sightings should be thoroughly photo-documented whenever possible. Much remains to be learned of their at-sea distributions, and Snowy can occur in any southern waters, but in the south Atlantic, Tristan is the other most likely species; in the south Pacific, Antipodean; and Amsterdam is rare in the south-central Indian Ocean.
Details: Species limits of the Wandering Albatross complex have long been contentious, and until recently two species were generally recognized, the widespread Wandering Albatross D. exulans and the Amsterdam Albatross D. amsterdamensis, only described in 1983, and then lumped into D. exulans in Clements (2005). Several authorities, however, including Gill and Donsker (2009, IOC v.2.1) have long recognized four species in the complex.
The lower-latitude breeding populations of Wandering-complex albatrosses from the Tristan group (mainly Gough Island) and Antipodes region have each been shown to be genetically distinct (e.g., Alderman et al. 2005), and the Amsterdam Island population is now known to have unique haplotypes and extremely low genetic diversity likely related to the bottleneck effect (Rains et al. 2011). In contrast, there is extremely low population structuring across the wide subantarctic breeding range of D. exulans sensu stricto (Burg and Croxall 2004, Rheindt and Austin 2005, Milot et al. 2007, 2008), showing panmixia despite the great distances between many breeding islands. Clearly, despite its extreme vagility, exulans rarely if ever interbreeds with any of the more northerly breeding taxa, which are not each other’s closest relatives, and hence a four-species approach in the Wandering Albatross complex is adopted by WGAC and the Clements Checklist.

Los desacuerdos no intencionados ocurren cuando un grupo padre (B) se adelgaza al cambiar un grupo hijo (E) a otra parte del árbol taxonómico, provocando que las Identificaciones existentes del grupo padre sean interpretados como desacuerdos con las Identificaciones existentes del grupo hijo cambiado.
Identification
La ID 2 del taxón E será un desacuerdo no intencionado con la ID 1 del taxón B después del intercambio de ancestros
Si el adelgazamiento del grupo padre provoca más de 10 desacuerdos no intencionados, deberías dividir el grupo padre después de intercambiar el grupo hijo para substituir las identificaciones existentes del grupo padre (B) con identificaciones con las que no esté en desacuerdo,
