		The auks (or Alcae) are coastal species which nest on sea cliffs and "fly" underwater to catch fish.
		The Sibley-Alquist taxonomy, which has been widely accepted in America, lumps all the Charadriiformes together with the seabirds and birds of prey into a greatly enlarged order Ciconiiformes.

	299/gulls
		The order Charadriiformes comprises about 320 bird species of very different appearance, ranging from the rail-look-alike jacanas via the waders to the terns, gulls and auks.
		The Charadriiformes TAG was initiated with a constitutional meeting during the EEP annual conference in September 1998 in Berlin.
		Surveys of Charadriiformes in European zoos had been made by the EEP office before the inauguration of the TAG, and data from these, including a recent one of 1999, were used as the basis for discussing a species-by-species list.

	Linear sequence of families in Charadriiformes
		: Our current sequence of families in the Charadriiformes is a conventional one, with "kind-of-rail-like" families first (Jacanidae + Rostratulidae), followed by the "shorebird" families, and ending with the "gull-like" families.
		(1) the Charadriiformes consists of three major groups: (1) the Scolopaci [Scolopacidae, Thinocoridae, Pedionomidae, Rostratulidae, and Jacanidae]; (2) the Charadrii [Charadriidae, Recurvirostridae, Haematopodidae, Burhinidae, and Chionidae]; and (3) the Lari [Laridae, Rynchopidae, Stercorariidae, Alcidae, and Glareolidae].

	Order Charadriiformes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Charadriiformes is the name of the order in which Shorebirds, Gulls, and Alcids are grouped.These groups have quite different characteristics.
		All the birds in it spend a lot of time either swimming or wading, whether in the ocean or in fresh water.
		The name Charadriiformes comes from a Latin root meaning "to cut into furrows".

	THE FAUNA OF HELMINTHES OF CHARADRIIFORMES IN ALASKA (EXCEPT ALCIDAE) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The study material was obtained by the authors from 40 species of Charadriiformes from Alaska in 1976 and from 49 birds presented them by Professor P. Rausch.
		In the meanwhile, 5 of these species are found only in Alaska, 5 species are non-arctic, and 87 species (almost 90%) are widely distributed in the Palaearctic faunal region.
		The above-presented example shows that the studies of biodiversity of parasites and their zoogeographical relationships in Arctic may present very interesting material for the reconstruction of processes that occurred in the course of history.

	BioMed Central \| Abstract \| A supertree approach to shorebird phylogeny
		Order Charadriiformes (shorebirds) is an ideal model group in which to study a wide range of behavioural, ecological and macroevolutionary processes across species.
		Although numerous hypotheses have been presented for subsets of the Charadriiformes none to date include all recognised species.
		Here we use the matrix representation with parsimony method to produce the first fully inclusive supertree of Charadriiformes.

		Effect on South American CL : This would make minor changes in the placement of five families to make our sequence reflect recent genetic data.
		Oddballs like Thinocoridae and Chionidae are placed between "shorebirds" and "gulls." Relationships among these families have been controversial -- see references at our SACC site.
		(8) Chionidae and Burhinidae are more closely related to each other than to any other charadriiform family (except Pluvianellidae: see #9 below).
