Abstract
The Old World genera Erpornis Hodgson, 1844, and Pteruthius Swainson, 1832, were long considered babblers Timaliidae This was based on gross morphology (in Erpornis , similarity to Yuhina ; in Pteruthius , bold plumage pattern reminiscent of, e.g., the laughingthrush genus Garrulax ) and biogeography (presence alongside many ‘other’ species of babblers in the Oriental region), rather than phylogenetic analysis. Paradisaeidae*, Laniidae*, Corvidae*, Melampittidae, Ifritidae*, Monarchidae*, Machaerirhynchidae, Artamidae*, Cracticidae*, Rhagologidae, Aegithinidae, Pityriasidae*, Malaconotidae*, Platysteiridae*, Vangidae*, Sylviidae, Zosteropidae, Timaliidae, Pellorneidae, Leiotrichidae, Polioptilidae, Troglodytidae, Buphagidae, Sturnidae, Mimidae, Urocynchramidae, Ploceidae, Amblyospizidae, Viduidae*, Estrildidae*, Passeridae, Fringillidae, Plectrophenacidae*, Rhodinocichlidae*, Emberizidae*, Calyptophilidae*, Mitrospingidae*, Thraupidae*, Cardinalidae*, Passerellidae*, Phaenicophilidae*, Icteridae* and Parulidae*.
