AOS award identification verifications are required through the Species Identification Task Force (SITF) for all CBR, CHM, or quality or cultural awards to taxa that have never been recorded by the AOS judging system, and also for challenges to current awards. The task force, appointed by the JC Chair, consists of a small group of dedicated volunteers and staff, who consult with respected taxonomic authorities worldwide to confirm and verify the awarded species or natural hybrids.
