Alan,
Manakins belong to the Family Pipridae and occur in Central and South America, while Mannikins belong to (as you probably know) belong to the Family Estrildae (in the Clements scheme of things) 

Cheers,
Carl Clifford

Hi Birders,
In Australia we have Mannikins (aka Chestnut-breasted Mannikin). Is a "Manakin" (as in Red-capped Manakin) the same as a Mannikin?
