Amazing changes!

and all based on less than 1% of the organisms genome. Glad I can see more than that of the birds anatomy, external form and behaviour.

The sequencing will change yet again - probably before too much more time goes by.

Have fun

My copy of the new C&B arrived yesterday too.  What a shake up to the
taxonomic list! I spent an absorbing couple of hours last night working
out where everything had moved to.  Tropicbirds are now listed
immediately after the ducks, pigeons appear before albatrosses, and many
other movements.  One change that particularly caught my eye was that
the chats now appear in the list between wattlebirds and several species
of honeyeaters.

Steve,

My copy of Christidis & Boles (2008) arrived in the mail yesterday. The
Helmeted Guineafowl is included in their main list, based on evidence
that
this species has persisted and bred at several locations in northern
Qld.
