Aethomyias
''Aethomyias'' is a genus of passerine birds in the family Acanthizidae that are endemic to New Guinea. A molecular phylogenetic study of the scrubwrens and mouse-warblers published in 2018 led to a substantial revision of the taxonomic classification. In the reorganisation the genus ''Aethomyias'' was resurrected to bring together a group of scrubwrens that had previously been placed in the genera '' Sericornis'' and ''Crateroscelis''. The genus ''Aethomyias'' had originally been introduced by the English ornithologist Richard Bowdler Sharpe in 1879 with the pale-billed scrubwren (''Aethomyias spilodera'') as the type species. The name of the genus combines the Ancient Greek ''aēthēs'' "unusual" or "change" with the Modern Latin ' meaning "flycatcher". The genus contains six species: * Bicolored scrubwren, ''Aethomyias nigrorufus'' * Pale-billed scrubwren, ''Aethomyias spilodera'' * Vogelkop scrubwren, ''Aethomyias rufescens'' * Buff-faced scrubwren, ''Aethomyias perspicillatu ...

Acanthizidae
The Acanthizidae—known as Australian warblers—are a family of passerine birds which includes gerygones, the thornbills '' Acanthiza'', and the scrubwrens of '' Sericornis''. The Acanthizidae family consists of small to medium passerine birds, with a total length varying between . They have short rounded wings, slender bills, long legs, and a short tail. Most species have olive, grey, or brown plumage, although some have patches of a brighter yellow. The weebill is the smallest species of acanthizid, and the smallest Australian passerine; the largest is the pilotbird. Taxonomy and systematics Following the Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy (1990) they were previously regarded as subfamily Acanthizinae within the family Pardalotidae. More recent molecular genetic studies do not support this arrangement. The Dasyornithidae (which include the bristlebirds) are variously seen either as subfamily Dasyornithinae within the family Acanthizidae or Pardalotidae or as own family (Schodde & Mas ...

Sericornis
''Sericornis'' is a genus of small, mainly insectivorous birds, the scrubwrens in the family Acanthizidae. Despite the similarity in shape and habits, the true wrens (Troglodytidae) are a quite unrelated group of passerines. The genus previously contained additional species but following the publication of a molecular phylogenetic study of the scrubwrens in 2018, several species were moved to the resurrected genus ''Aethomyias'' and the yellow-throated scrubwren was placed in its own monotypic genus ''Neosericornis''. The genus contains eight species: * Large-billed scrubwren, ''Sericornis magnirostris'' * Tropical scrubwren or Beccari's scrubwren, ''Sericornis beccarii'' - sometimes included in ''S. magnirostris'' * Large scrubwren, ''Sericornis nouhuysi'' * Spotted scrubwren, ''Sericornis maculatus'' - previously included in ''S. frontalis'' * Tasmanian scrubwren or brown scrubwren, ''Sericornis humilis'' - previously included in ''S. frontalis'' * Atherton scrubwren, ''Se ...

Modern Latin
New Latin (also called Neo-Latin or Modern Latin) is the revival of Literary Latin used in original, scholarly, and scientific works since about 1500. Modern scholarly and technical nomenclature, such as in zoological and botanical taxonomy and international scientific vocabulary, draws extensively from New Latin vocabulary, often in the form of classical or neoclassical compounds. New Latin includes extensive new word formation. As a language for full expression in prose or poetry, however, it is often distinguished from its successor, Contemporary Latin. Extent Classicists use the term "Neo-Latin" to describe the Latin that developed in Renaissance Italy as a result of renewed interest in classical civilization in the 14th and 15th centuries. Neo-Latin also describes the use of the Latin language for any purpose, scientific or literary, during and after the Renaissance. The beginning of the period cannot be precisely identified; however, the spread of secular education, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bird Genera
Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrates constituting the class Aves (), characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the bee hummingbird to the ostrich. There are about ten thousand living species, more than half of which are passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds have whose development varies according to species; the only known groups without wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which are modified forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the loss of flight in some birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemic island species. The digestive and respiratory systems of birds are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird species of aquatic environments, particularly seabirds and some waterbirds, have further evolved for swimming. Bi ...
