	ADW: Phalacrocoracidae: Information
		Phalacrocoracidae comprises a single genus (Phalacrocorax) (see van Tets (1976) support for two genera (Phalacrocorax (cormorants) and Leucocarbo (shags), and Siegel-Causey (1988) support for nine genera).
		The composition of Phalacrocoracidae has been contested: some research suggests the group comprises only cormorants and shags, whereas other research supports the inclusion of anhingas.

	Pelecaniformes - EvoWiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Pelecaniformes represents one of the most spectacular orders of living birds, bracketing a vast array of aquatic piscivorous forms united by the shared presence of a totipalmate foot and a distensible gular pouch between the mandibular rami (albeit reduced in the tropicbirds).
		The Anhingidae and Phalacrocoracidae, sister families within the Suloidea, are the most highly derived pelecaniform birds.
		Phalacrocoracidae are also first known from the Upper Eocene (Feduccia 1996).

	Cranial Pneumatization in the Phalacrocoracidae (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Length and width of bursa of Fabricius were measured in the field to nearest mm by dial calipers with indeterminate accuracy.
		During the course of a phylogenetic study of the Phalacrocoracidae (Siegel-Causey 1988), I was able to obtain data on cranial pneumatization patterns in 15 taxa in the family.
		I examine here the phylogenetic patterns of cranial pneumatization in the Phalacrocoracidae and the relationship between the extent of cranial pneumatization, bursa size (age), and body size.

	A yellow-footed pink-footed shag: An unusual Stewart Island Shag at Taiaroa Head (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The three genera of the Phalacrocoracidae in New Zealand can for convenience be differentiated by foot colour: species of Phalacrocorax have fl feet, those of Stictocarbo have yellow feet and those of Leucocarbo have pink or flesh-coloured feet (Lalas 1983, O'Brien 1990).
		We suggest, therefore, that foot colour may need to be used with caution as a systematic character in the Phalacrocoracidae.

	Jendy Yon - colloquium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Pelecanidae and Phalacrocoracidae were the only two families that met all four criteria.
		Pelecanidae was rejected because the species in Japan is accidental, they have a diet of only small fish which they swallow immediately, and are sensitive to human disturbance.
		Out of the seven possibilities, Phalacrocoracidae was found to be the only suitable fisher-bird, based on the above criteria, because they have a diet mainly of fish which are large enough to be of use to humans.

		The Spotted Shag or Parekareka (Phalacrocorax punctatus, also occasionally called the Spotted Cormorant) is an attractive species of the family Phalacrocoracidae found only in New Zealand.
		Currently classified as Phalacrocorax punctatus, is sufficiently different in appearance from typical members of the genus Phalacrocorax that it has in the past been placed in a separate genus, Stictocarbo, along with one other species, the similar Pitt Island Shag.
