Stubble or Brown Quail?

[edit]

Shouldn't the statement in the article

It is sometimes considered conspecific with the Australian Stubble Quail, which would then be named Coturnix novaezelandiae pectoralis as it was only scientifically described after the New Zealand birds were.

refer to Australian Brown Quail (Coturnix ypsilophora)?

No, I don't believe so. See the paper I just cited. --Avenue (talk) 07:44, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
