Thanks for pointing out that now glaring error in Birds of HK and S. China, Bena. It would indeed explain njimmy's mis-identification and potentially that of large nos. of Canvasbacks all over China!

Perhaps some of our members who post to PRC (mainland) birding sites, could draw people's attention to this.

Just a tiny bibliographical correction: the correct citation for the authorship is Viney, Phillipps and Lam.
