CAMBIOS EN EL ORDEN LINEAL EN AVES 57th Supplement: Auk 2016

Notes.—Linear sequence of orders in Neoaves follows the
genomic studies of Jarvis et al. (2014) and Prum et al. (2015)
and numerous less comprehensive studies. Results of these
studies indicate that Neoaves consists largely of three
radiations: a poorly resolved initial radiation at the base of
the Neoaves (consisting of Phoenicopteriformes, Podicipediformes,
Columbiformes, Pterocliformes, Mesitornithiformes,
Cuculiformes, Musophagiformes, Otidiformes, Caprimulgiformes,
Steatornithiformes, Nyctibiiformes, Podargiformes,
Aegotheliformes, Apodiformes, Opisthocomiformes, Gruiformes,
and Charadriiformes) and better-resolved radiations
of core waterbirds (Gaviiformes, Sphenisciformes, Procellariiformes,
Ciconiiformes, Suliformes, and Pelecaniformes,
with Phaethontiformes and Eurypygiformes the apparent
sister group to these) and core landbirds (Cathartiformes,
Accipitriformes, Strigiformes, Coliiformes, Leptosomiformes,
Trogoniformes, Upupiformes, Bucerotiformes, Coraciiformes,
Piciformes, Cariamiformes, Falconiformes, Psittaciformes,
and Passeriformes).
Change the linear sequence of the orders between
GALLIFORMES and TROGONIFORMES, and their
included family headings and genus and species accounts, to:
PHOENICOPTERIFORMES
