Heads up: Some or all of the identifications affected by this split may have been replaced with identifications of Menelaides. This happens when we can't automatically assign an identification to one of the output taxa. Review identifications of Papilio fuscus 496560

@thebeachcomber here's the split that deals ONLY with Australian observations. I'm not all that comfortable with doing a partial split like this but it seems a pragmatic approach. I'm unable to view the paper so can't do the species across its entire range, even if I was inclined to. Your thoughts? Feel free to commit if you don't see any problems with it.

Will the unatlased fuscus records remain as fuscus or will they become Menelaides as suggested by the heads up blurb?

Have made an atlas that excludes Australia for P. fuscus to ensure IDs aren't downgraded. It can be refined later if further splits are made of non-Aust populations.

fyi @pewin they should all be automatically swapped over now, let us know if you see any errors or issues

Thanks - I suspect the PNG and Pacific Island "Fuscous" Swallowtail are also Capaneus Swallowtail (of various subspecies) but I can't access the paper to confirm that.
Cheers
Peter

Thank you - the island species definitely need a revisit at some stage
