The Entomological Society of America applauds this effort by our colleagues in ornithology to advance inclusive practices in animal common names.

This announcement represents the culmination of an enormous amount of work by many thoughtful and dedicated people. I'm incredibly grateful for their careful and considered approach and am honored they gave so much to American Ornithological Society and the birding community. Now the real fun begins!!

Here is our full response to this week's announcement on bird names. The words we use matter, and the decision made by the AOS will provide a great opportunity to engage our community in choosing bird names that we are all proud to use. wilsonsociety.org/2023/11/03/wos…
