Avian Molecular Evolution and Systematics
Sampling Considerations We used 17 gruiform species to represent an order that
includes 196. Thus, auta— pomorphies of the species sampled may be mistaken
for synapomorphies of families (e.g., Patterson et al., 1993). This problem is ...

Transactions of the Linnean Society of London: Zoology. 2nd ser
A modification of the Limieoline-Gruiform metacentre is found in many of the
simpler Charadriidae such as Numenius, and consists in the gradual shaping of

axial ...
