	Maluridae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Maluridae are a family of small, insectivouous passerine birds endemic to Australia and New Guinea.
		With further morphological work and the great strides made in DNA analysis towards the end of the 20th century, their position became clear: the Maluridae are one of the many families to have emerged from the great corvid radiation in Australasia.
		Their closest relatives are the Meliphagidae (honeyeaters), the Pardalotidae, and the Petroicidae (Australian robins).

		The relationships between body weight, clutch size, length of breeding season, breeding frequency, incubation and nestling periods were studied in the Australian passerines.
		The means of the above factors as well as allometric equations were calculated for all Australian passerines and separately for the four major families (Maluridae, Meliphagidae, Muscicapidae and Ploceidae) and six zones of distribution (all Australia; Bassian; Torresian; Torresian and Bassian; Irian; Eyrean).
		A significant difference in clutch size was found between the Irian and Eyrean zones, supporting an early claim by Kikkawa.

		Evolution and biogeography of the Australian grasswrens, Amytornis (Aves : Maluridae): biochemical perspectives
		Allozymes at 35 presumptive loci were screened across 43 specimens representing seven of the eight currently recognised species of Australian grasswrens (Maluridae).
		The results identified an early divergence between the grey grasswren, Amytornis barbatus, and the remaining species examined.
