Notes The study of Oliveros et al (2009) covers all the 136 H&M4 (and Cracraft, 2014) families, plus seven others that they label as such in the figures and mention in the discussion of the supplementary materials (for a total 143 families in study). The addition families are
Tichodromidae
(to maintain monophyly of Sittidae).
The IOC recognise 144 passerine families, 133 in common with Oliveros et al (2019) and an addiitional 11 families not recognised in Oliveros et al (2019) or by H&M4. However, The Oliveros study samples species representative of 9 of these additional families, leaving net coverage of 142 of the 144 IOC families.
Additional IOC families that are sampled Oliveros et al (2019):
The IOC recognises families Eupetes
).
The IOC recognises Paradoxornithidae (Parrotbills & Allies), which Oliveros et al included within
Sylviidae
The IOC recognides families Scotocercidae
(H&M recognise these taxa as three subfamilies).
The IOC recognises Promeropidae
(H&M4 place Modulatrix in Promeropidae).
The IOC recognises Icteridae
(New World blackbirds; two subfamilies in H&M4)
The IOC recognises (H&M4 place Nesospingus and Spinalis in Phaenicophilidae as genera incertae sedis ). Additional IOC families that were not sampled by Oliveros et al (2019):
The IOC recognises Zeledoniidae
(wren-thrush and allies) as genera incertae sedis ).
The IOC recognises Leiothrichidae
(laughing-thrushes and other large babblers) at the top of the sequence).
Furnariidae
(ovenbirds) – two additional families not now recognised by the IOC
Scleruridae
(leaftossers)Dendrocolaptidae
(woodcreepers)Tityridae (tityras) – two additional families
Oxyruncidae
(sharpbill)Onychorhynchidae
(royal flycatchers & allies)Tyrannidae
(tyrant flycatchers) – four additional families
Pipritidae
(piprites)Platyrinchidae
(spadebills)Tachurididae
(rush tyrant)Pipromorphidae
(flatbills) for this family)Corvidae (crows and jays) – one additional family
Sittidae
(nuthatches, salpornises and wallcreeper) – one additional family
as a subfamily in Sittidae) Cisticolidae (cisticolas and allies) – one possible additional family
"Graueria as genus incertae sedis in Cisticolidae; in Oliveros it is either sister to
Acrocephalidae Graueria in Acrocephalidae)
Hypocoliidae
(hypocolius and hylocitrea)
