It's my belief, possibly incorrect, that the A.O.U. has lumped the hoary redpoll and common redpoll under the species name common redpoll. Which seems reasonable at first look, as there seem to be intermediate plummage variations. It could be I misread, and the A.O.U. is considering lumping the two. There is some conflicting information, see the two papers below.
