Dabbling Ducks

Note that Ringed Teal, Mandarin and Wood Duck have now been moved to the Shelduck subfamily. I believe Maned Duck has also been moved out, though I await clarification as to its current subfamily.

Crested Duck Lophonetta specularioides

Bronze-winged Duck Speculanas specularis

Brazilian Teal Amazonetta brasiliensis

Baikal Teal Sibirionetta formosa

Genus Spatula

Shovelers and allies (includes Garganey, Blue-billed Teal, Puna Teal, Silver Teal, Cinnamon Teal and Blue-winged Teal)

Genus Mareca

Wigeon and allies (includes Gadwall and Falcated Duck)

I had started working through the dabbling ducks as I was following the IOC World Bird Names sequence, but with thew new AviList bring most of the different authorities together it makes more sense to follow that sequence. This puts dabbling ducks further down, so I am now filling in some of the gaps that opened up earlier in the new sequence before continuing to add more dabbling ducks.

Hybrid: Northern Shoveler Spatula clypeata x Gadwall Mareca strepera

Lots more to follow soon...
