	Dr. Siwo de Kloet
		Tinamous (Aves, Palaeognathae, Tinamiformes) are primitive birds, generally considered to be the sister group to the ratites.
		This paper describes experiments which show that the sequences of these forms are more similar to each other and to the homologous undifferentiated spindlin gene sequences in the ratite genome than to the W or Z forms of the spindlin gene in other, neognathous species.
		This suggests that cessation of recombination at the spindlin locus of the ancestral W and Z chromosomes of the tinamiformes and the neagnathous avian species were independent events.

	Re: palaeognaths (NEORNITHINE PHYLOGENY)
		According to Peter F. Murray and Dirk Megirian, 1998, The Skull of Dromornithid Birds: Anatomical Evidence for Their Relationship to Anseriformes Records of the South Australian Museum 31: 51-97 they are close to or even a member of Anseriformes, and not related to Ratitae.
		Therefore, the question in my mind is if they gave rise to a >single clade of ratites as I have it now coded (or two or more separate >independent ratite clades---in which case more than one ratite order may be >needed).
		I think volant Lithornithiform-stock gave rise to both >>Tinamiform stock and to (volant) Struthioniform stock, which in the >>teriairy >>spread to the leftovers of Gondwana.

	Digimorph - Crypturellus cinnamomeus (thicket tinamou)
		It is one of some forty species of tinamiform birds found in South and Central America.
		The Tinamiformes share certain affinities with the group of birds defined as 'paleognaths' (e.g., kiwi, moa, elephant bird), but their relations to or within the paleognathes are unresolved as the very definition of the group 'paleognath' is inconsistent and somewhat contentious in the field of avian systematics.

		Then we might list the tinamous (Tinamiformes), which can become airborne in emergencies, but are famous for flying full-tilt into trees and breaking their necks when they do so.
		Characters: $ "Paleognathous" palate, consisting of: large (pre-?)vomer attached to pterygoid and palatines, excluding both from parasphenoid joint between, no pterygoid and palatine; moveable joint between braincase and pterygoid, and large basipterygoid processes; primitively, splenial present on dentary; numerous "flight" characters of skeletal anatomy are generally preserved, if more or less vestigialized.
