Benson's Swallow[edit]

The article on Constantine Walter Benson credits him with the scientific discovery of the white-tailed swallow, and gives the alternative name Benson's Swallow. Its sources are behind paywalls. Please confirm this and mention it here. Verbcatcher (talk) 04:22, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This has been resolved, thanks. Verbcatcher (talk) 21:07, 23 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
