	THE HINDLIMB MUSCULATURE OF THE MOUSEBIRDS (COLIIFORMES) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Although this character alone cannot dem- onstrate a common ancestry for the Coliiformes and Psittaciformes, it is more substantial evi- dence than any single feature previously of- fered in relating the Coliiformes to other groups.
		Whereas the system- atics within the order are not a problem, be- cause of certain peculiarities in their habits and morphology the relationship of the Coliiformes to other avian orders has always been uncer- tain.
		The most conspicuous feature distinguish- ing the Coliiformes from other birds is their ability to rotate both the first and fourth hind- limb digits to either a cranial or caudal posi- 1 Present address: Department of Biology, College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, Massachusetts 01610 USA.

		The oldest known remains of mousebird-like birds are assigned to the family Sandcoleidae, described by P. Houde and S. Olson in 1992 from the Lower Eocene of North America, and encompassing half a dozen genera, among them the type genus, Sandcoleus.
		Those scientists placed the Sandcoleidae in its own order, but, in view of the large number of skeletal peculiarities which it shares with the Coliidae, it seems best to include the Sandcoleidae in the Coliiformes for the time being.
		Members of the Sandcoleidae have subsequently been found in two places in Europe: in the London Clay of the Lower Eocene, and in deposits from the Middle Eocene of Grube Messel, in Germany.

	Classification of birds of South America Part 05
		A recent analysis of morphological data (Mayr 2003b, Mayr and Clarke 2003) suggest that the Steatornithidae and the Trogoniformes and might be sister taxa.
		Some genetic (Espinosa de los Monteros 2000) data suggest a sister relationship with the Coliiformes (mousebirds), whereas other genetic data (Fain and Houde 2004) support a sister relationship with the Old World Bucerotidae.
		Recent genetic data (Moyle 2005) suggest that the quetzals (Pharomachrus + Euptilotis) might be basal to all other trogons, including Old World genera.
