Eurasian golden oriole taxonomy

The family Oriolidae was first described by Nicholas Aylward Vigors (1785 – 26 October 1840), an Irish zoologist and politician, in the year 1825. The family Oriolidae comprises two extinct genera and three extant genera, viz., Sphecotheres, Pitohui and Oriolus.

The genus Oriolus was first introduced by Carl Linnaeus (23 May 1707 – 10 January 1778), a Swedish botanist, physician and zoologist, in 1766 in the twelfth edition of his Systema Naturae. The type species is Oriolus oriolus (Coracias oriolus).

The genus Oriolus comprises twenty nine species, including Oriolus oriolus. The species Oriolus oriolus was first described by Carl Linnaeus in the year 1758.

The species Oriolus kundoo was earlier considered as a subspecies of O. oriolus. Pamela Rasmussen and John Anderton treated them as separate species in 2005 and it was further supported by molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010.
