The species was first classified by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. Initially given the binomial nomenclature of Scolopax rubra (the name incorporates the Latin adjective ruber, "red"), the species was later designated Guara rubra and ultimately Eudocimus ruber. Biologically the scarlet ibis is very closely related to the American white ibis (Eudocimus albus) and is sometimes considered conspecific with it, leaving modern science divided over their taxonomy. Order: Pelecaniformes, Family: Threskiornithidae, Subfamily: Threskionithinae, Genus: Eudocimus, Species: Eudocimus ruber (Linnaeus, 1758)
