Taxonomic Swap 118954 (Committed on 2022-12-23)

Rufous Potoo is behaviourally and morphologically distinctive within the potoos. Genetic and osteological analyses (Costa et al. 2018, 2021) suggest that it is sufficiently divergent in both to warrant generic distinction; see also AOS-SACC Proposal 927). Change the scientific name from Nyctibius bracteatus to Phyllaemulor bracteatus. Reposition Rufous Potoo to be the first (rather than the last) species in the linear sequence of the potoos.
