Biology:Tyrannides
Tyrannides (New World suboscines) is a clade of passerine birds that are endemic to the Americas.[1] The group likely originated in South America during the Eocene, about 45 million years ago.[2]
Taxonomy
The Tyrannides is divided into two clades (Furnariida and Tyrannida) that contain thirteen families.[3][4] The families listed here are those recognised by the International Ornithologists' Union (IOC).[5]
- Parvorder Tyrannida
- Pipridae: manakins
- Cotingidae: cotingas
- Tityridae: tityras, becards
- Tyrannidae: tyrant-flycatchers (includes Piprites, Platyrinchus, Tachuris and Rhynchocyclus)
- Oxyruncidae: sharpbill
- Onychorhynchidae: royal flycatchers and myiobiuses
- Parvorder Furnariida
- Melanopareiidae: crescent chests
- Conopophagidae: gnateaters and gnatpittas
- Thamnophilidae: antbirds
- Grallariidae: antpittas
- Rhinocryptidae: tapaculos
- Formicariidae: antthrushes
- Furnariidae: ovenbirds and woodcreepers (includes Dendrocolaptidae)
Phylogeny
The cladogram below showing the family level phylogenetic relationships of the Tyrannides is based on a molecular genetic study by Carl Oliveros and collaborators published in 2019.[4] The families and species numbers are from the list maintained by the International Ornithologists' Union (IOC).[5]
