Looking at Christidis & Boles it is interesting that they place the
Button-quails (Turnicidae) in Charadriiformes (between Scolopacidae &
Glareolidae - Sandpipers & Pratincoles). I have not seen this before though
they list a few recent references. Going on this, the recent Shorebirds of
Australia should have also included Button-quails as well as the
Plains-wanderer (which is put between Charadriidae & Jacanidae - Plovers &
Jacanas in the same order).
Cheers,
Peter
