The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time.

As a generic term for the two species. DTLHS (talk) 04:08, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- The definition is not for both of the two species, but for either of the two species. It is definitely possible to find cites for each individual species (see citations page). Kiwima (talk) 00:00, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hmm, I suppose the question is whether "crocias" occurs by itself, e.g. as "I saw a crocias", outside the full (common) names of the two species. (If so, I think it's unimportant whether it's presented the way it currently is or by listing "a grey-crowned crocias" and "a spotted crocias" as separate senses of "crocias".) On the raw web, I can find examples of "a crocias", but not in books. It's possible this should be converted to an
{{only used in}}entry pointing to the two full names. - -sche (discuss) 18:24, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- I can't actually find any citations of "crocias" by itself referring to these birds - I can only find it as part of one or the other "full" name. As proposed, I'm going to reduce it to a soft redirect to the two full names. (RFV-failed.) - -sche (discuss) 08:05, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
