A small, isolated population nests in eastern Turkey. The East Siberian and North American White-winged Scoter is sometimes considered conspecific with the Velvet Scoter, and its two constituent subspecies are then known as *M. f. stejnegeri* and *M. f. deglandi*. Velvet and White-winged Scoter, along with the Surf Scoter, are placed in the subgenus *Melanitta*, distinct from the subgenus *Oidemia*, Black and Common Scoters.</obo_purl:IAO_0000115> <oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym>velvet scoter</oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym> <oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym>white-winged scoter</oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym> <oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym xml:lang="en">whitewing</oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym> <oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym xml:lang="en">Velvet duck</oboinowl_gen:hasExactSynonym> <metadata:prefixIRI>NCBITaxon:371864</metadata:prefixIRI> <oboinowl_gen:hasNarrowSynonym>Melanitta fusca (Linnaeus, 1758)</oboinowl_gen:hasNarrowSynonym> <oboinowl_gen:hasDbXref rdf:resource="http://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&amp;search_value=175163"/> <oboinowl_gen:hasDbXref rdf:resource="http://www.langual.org/langual_thesaurus.asp?termid=B4480"/> <oboinowl_gen:hasDbXref rdf:resource="http://eol.org/pages/1048996"/> <rdfs:label>Melanitta fusca</rdfs:label> <obo_purl:IAO_0000118 xml:lang="en">velvet scoter</obo_purl:IAO_0000118> <obo_purl:IAO_0000412 rdf:resource="http://langual.org"/> <obo_purl:IAO_0000412 rdf:resource="http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ncbitaxon.owl"/> <obo_purl:IAO_0000114 rdf:resource="http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/IAO_0000428"/> <oboinowl_gen:hasSynonym xml:lang="en">melanitta fusca</oboinowl_gen:hasSynonym> </owl:Class> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/FOODON_03414480"> <obo_purl:IAO_0100001> <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCBITaxon_371864"> <metadata_def:mappingSameURI rdf:resource="http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCBITaxon_371864"/> </rdf:Description> </obo_purl:IAO_0100001> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>
