Major new research into eagle [[Taxonomy (biology)|taxonomy]] suggests that the important genera ''Aquila'' and ''Hieraaetus'' are not composed of nearest relatives, and it is likely that a reclassification of these genera will soon take place, with some species being moved to ''Lophaetus'' or ''Ictinaetus''.<ref name=LM2005>{{cite journal|last=Lerner|first=H.

*[[Bonelli's eagle]] and the [[African hawk-eagle]] have been moved from ''Hieraaetus'' to ''Aquila''.
*Either the [[greater spotted eagle]] and [[lesser spotted eagle]] should move from ''Aquila'' to join the [[long-crested eagle]] in ''Lophaetus'', or, perhaps better, all three of these species should move to ''Ictinaetus'' with the [[black eagle]].
*The [[steppe eagle]] and [[tawny eagle]], once thought to be [[conspecificity|conspecific]], are not even each other's nearest relatives.
