Neohierax

Bird genus - Phylogenetic analysis of Falconidae reveals that White-rumped Falcon is not sister to Pygmy Falcon Polihierax semitorquatus. Rather it is a basal taxon in the same clade as Falco while Pygmy Falcon is sister to Microhierax which together form a separate clade. Resurrect the monotypic genus Neohierax for White-rumped Falcon to preserve monophyly (Fuchs et al. 2015). Revise sequence.
