Pasquet & Thibault's paper was reinterpreted by George Sangster in "Genetic distance as a test of species boundaries in the Citril Finch Serinus citrinella: a critique and taxonomic reinterpretation," Ibis 142, 3 (2000): 487-490. He argues that the genetic distance of 2.7% found by P&T is

sufficient to justify changing the taxonomic treatment of the mainland and Corsican forms. He also states that the vocal differences between the two forms are important particularly when they correlate with differences in morphology and mtDNA.
