First peer review


Review by Jack Peter Hruska , Texas Tech University
These assessment comments were submitted on , and refer to this previous version of the article

In the ‘Taxonomy and Systematics’ section, the sister relationship between Eurylaimus javanicus and Eurylaimus ochromalus was noted prior to the Selavatti et al. publication. For example, Moyle et al. 2006 recovered them as sister taxa. At the very least this publication should be cited here (listed below). In addition, the relationships of Eurylaimus with respect to Cymbiryhnchus, Serilophus, Corydon, Pseudocalyptomena, and Psarisomus are all elucidated in the Moyle et al. paper as well.

Moyle, R. G., Chesser, R. T., Prum, R. O., Schikler, P., & Cracraft, J. (2006). Phylogeny and evolutionary history of Old World suboscine birds (Aves: Eurylaimides). American Museum Novitates, 2006(3544), 1-22.

Response

Mr. Hruska, I've added a mention of the Moyle et al. study, but have kept the Selvatti et al. study as the primary reference for the cladogram, since the latter is newer and more comprehensive. Do you have any other comments?

Second peer review


Review by Alexandre Pedro Selvatti Ferreira Nunes , Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro

Taxonomy and Systematics

  • Second paragraph, third line: add common name for the genus Sarcophanops (wattled broadbill) as it is mentioned in the next sentence without links or reference to the genus name.
  • Last paragraph: references should be given for the studies that had recognised the subspecies

Description

  • absence of bristles at the base of the bill worth mentioning as it is in the original description. The same goes for the leg and feet characteristics, which are mentioned in the original description but are absent in the Wiki text.
Response

  • I don't think that wattled broadbill would be appropriate as a common name for Sarcophanops; after the split, wattled broadbill is used as a common name exclusively for S. steerii by all the major checklists.
  • I have added citations to the articles in which the subspecies were described.
  • Added relevant information about the legs and bill from the description; I've excluded information on the joining of the toes as it doesn't seem like particularly useful as a distinguishing characteristic and I haven't seen any bird species accounts that describe skeletal anatomy.
  • Mr. Nunes, I've responded to all of your comments above, do you have any more comments?
