	FOSSIL BIRDS OF THE LATE PLIOCENE OF CITA CANYON, TEXAS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		There is close familial accord in proportion, especially in the ratio of the length of the distal carpometacarpal symphysis to the total length of the carpometacarpus (Table 2), which is generally of a higher value in the family Threskiornithidae than in the families Ardeidae, Cochlearidae, and Ciconiidae.
		In all genera of the Ardeidae and Cochlearidae examined, the basal hypotarsal stalk is perforated or deeply cut with two tendinal canals.
		The non-perforate hypo- tarsus is also found in the families Phoenicopteridae and Ciconiidae, but the fossil is markedly smaller and shows differences in details of configura- tion from them.

	ORNITHOLOGICAL LITERATURE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		For example, a somewhat hasty count shows the widespread Boat-tailed Grackle and Black Vulture cited 26 and 19 times, respectively.
		By contrast, not a single locality is given for any member of the following notable families: Boat- billed Herons (Cochlearidae), Sun-grebes (Heliornithidae), Thick-knees (Burhinidae), Potoos (Nyctibiidae), Jacamars (Galbulidae), Puffbirds (Bucconidae), Antbirds (For- micariidae), and Manakins (Pipridae).
		Obviously, when dealing with an avifauna as large and imperfectly known as Mxico's, a book of this type cannot be expected to be complete.

	Other proto-families
		We need not concern ourselves with quite that many; some of the older suggestions were idiosyncratic or have been discarded.
		For example, the Boat-billed Heron (right) was often considered a monotypic family, the "Cochlearidae," until the A.O.U. (1983) downgraded it to subfamily status.
		Biochemical and other evidence has shown that it is clearly just a big-billed night-heron; it is not even thought to be subfamily now (e.g., A.O.U. But it is still a great bird to find in the Neotropics (coastal mangrove swamps of Mexico to the Brazilian Pantanal).
