Long-tailed tamandua (Tamandua tetradactyla nigra) is mislabeled as Northern tamandua (Tamandua mexicana) in many facilities in Japan. I'm not convinced this is an error, but I can't find any papers suggesting that Long-tailed tamandua is included in Northern tamandua. Is this happening only in Japan?

Southern Tamandua (with no known subspecific status) is occasionally mislabeled as Northern in US zoos.
