The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It contains 3 extant and 1 recently extinct species, all of which are or were found in the North Pacific Ocean.
- Members of this genus were formerly classified within the genus Phalacrocorax.
- Based on the results of a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014, the genus Phalacrocorax was split and these species were moved to the resurrected genus Urile that had been introduced in 1856 by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte with the red-faced cormorant as the type species.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Urile article was read about 3,900 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 49 and blocks with 34: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
