1 For newly revealed relationships between the three genera included here see Jønsson et al. (2007) [Jønsson, 2007 #6663]. The name Eupetidae Bonaparte, 1850, has many years precedence over Picathartidae Lowe, 1938.
2 Sometimes treated as two species following Clancey (1980) [Clancey, 1980 #909]; but re-united by Fry (2000) [Fry, 2000 #1631].
3 Treated as a separate species by Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
