[edit] Olivaceous Cormorant is Synonym for Neotropic Cormorant

The bird formerly known as Olivaceous Cormorant, Phalacrocorax olivaceous, is now treated as Neotropic Cormorant, Phalacrocorax brasilianus--see AOU Check-list (1998). Given the synonymy, the account for Olivaceous Cormorant or Mexican Cormorant, Phalacrocorax olivaceous, should be deleted or redirected to the account for Neotropic Cormorant.
