Abstract

J. H. A. Gallaš (1756-1840) mentioned in his manuscript the occurrence of Corvus eremita L. in Moravia. Mlíkovský (2007) says incorrectly that Hudeček & Hanák (2004) had stated in was a discovery from the 19 th century. We have not written anything of this sort. Nevertheless, the author of his text persists on its potential occurrence in the 18 th century. The species Corvus eremita L. (= Geronticus eremita) has been taken as made-up and non-existent since the beginning of the 19 th century but its application in relation to the species Corvus graculus L. (= Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax)
