1 Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713] used this name and not Turdoidinae which dates from the same source; see Bock (1994) [Bock, 1994 #398]. Gelang et al. (2009) [Gelang, 2009 #11542] acted as First Revisers and selected Leiothrichinae Swainson, 1831 over Turdoidinae Richmond, 1917 (1831) (a name replacing Crateropodinae Swainson, 1831).
2 Included genera and their sequence based on Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713]; but Chatarrhea is adopted for part of Turdoides and Argya is used for a group of unscreened turdoidid species recognised by Wolters (1980) [Wolters, 1980 #4263]. Other names straightforwardly brought out of synonymy.
3 Sequence of species based on Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713].
4 Includes eriphaea; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].

18 Includes billypayni; see Vaurie (1959) [Vaurie, 1959 #3961].
19 The original name here restored replaces bowdleri Deignan, 1964, as recognition of Argya removes the homonymy which required the new name. Art. 57.6 (I.C.Z.N., 1999) [I.C.Z.N., 1999 #2059] refers.
20 The original name here restored replaces schnitzeri Deignan, 1964, as placement in Argya removes the homonymy which required the new name. Art. 59.4 (I.C.Z.N., 1999) [I.C.Z.N., 1999 #2059] refers.
21 Includes loveridgei; see Fry (2000) [Fry, 2000 #1631].
22 For recognition see Wolters (1980) [Wolters, 1980 #4263].
23 For recognition of this genus see Wolters (1980) [Wolters, 1980 #4263]. Sequential position tentative. Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713] found Turdoides gularis was paraphyletic with respect to four other species of Turdoides.

95 Species not known to have been screened kept with their traditional allies.
96 Subspecies groups derived from treatment as two species in Rasmussen & Anderton (2005) [Rasmussen, 2005 #4749] and Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
97 For treatment as a separate species from T. cachinnans, see Rasmussen & Anderton (2005) [Rasmussen, 2005 #4749].
98 Treatment here follows Rasmussen & Anderton (2005) [Rasmussen, 2005 #4749]. But see Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636].
99 Considered to form a superspecies with T. morrisonianum by Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636].
100 For date correction see Dickinson et al. (2011) [Dickinson, 2011 #13287].
101 Cheng (1987) [Cheng Tso-hsin, 1987 #739] followed Vaurie (1954) [Vaurie, 1954 #3950] in separating this from T. affine.
102 Includes prjevalskii [sic]; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
103 For date correction see Dickinson et al. (2011) [Dickinson, 2011 #13287].
104 Includes gucenensis Li, Wang & Jiang, 1978 [Li De-hao, 1978 #2375] thought to be an interspecific hybrid; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
105 Subspecies groups derived from treatment as five species by Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226]; however, see Collar (2011) [Collar, 2011 #12811] for reasons to avoid premature subdivision. Focussed molecular results awaited (only the nominate subspecies was sampled by Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713]).
106 Considered to form a superspecies with T. yersini by Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636].
107 Includes imprudens; see Ripley (1982) [Ripley, 1982 #3332].
108 For recognition; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
109 Species sequence follows Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713].
110 Subspecies nigroaurita is recognised by Rasmussen & Anderton (2005) [Rasmussen, 2005 #4749].
111 Considered to form a superspecies with H. gracilis by Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636].
112 For recognition see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
113 For treatment as a separate species from H. melanoleuca; see Robson (2000) [Robson, 2000 #3368] and Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
114 For correction of authorship see Dickinson (2003) [Dickinson, 2003 #1384].
115 Includes aureigularis and vernayi; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
116 The name astleyi, given to aviary birds of unknown origin, probably relates to hybrids.
117 Includes luteola; see Ripley (1982) [Ripley, 1982 #3332].
118 Introduced to Spain, France, Italy, Japan, Réunion and Hawaiian Is.
119 Harrison (1986) [Harrison, 1986 #1900] proposed placing this in Minla; for molecular evidence placing this close to Minla see Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713].
120 Original spelling annectans; here considered a misspelling of an original Latin word, not a mistransliteration and thus requiring correction. See also Appendix 8.
121 For date correction see Dickinson et al. (2011) [Dickinson, 2011 #13287].
122 For treatment as a separate species from L. phoenicea, see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226] and Collar (2011) [Collar, 2011 #12811].
123 Considered to form a superspecies with L. omeiensis by Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636]. Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226] suggested that L. bugunorum may belong to this group.
124 The name Ixops Blyth, 1843, suggested by Dong et al. (2010) [Dong Feng, 2010 #12499], is a junior subjective synonym. The fact that the vernacular name sibia is used for a different group of birds does not invalidate usage here. For usage since 1899 see Baker (1930) [Baker, 1930 #4479].
125 For recognition of this genus, due to non-monophyly, see Dong Feng et al. (2010) [Dong Feng, 2010 #12499] and Moyle et al. (2012) [Moyle, 2012 #14713].
126 Includes vinctura see Ripley (1980) [Ripley, 1980 #3331] and Abdulali (1984) [Abdulali, 1984 #25].
127 Considered to form a superspecies with S. waldeni by Sibley & Monroe (1990) [Sibley, 1990 #3636].
128 Correct original spelling. Spelling soulei in Dickinson (2003) [Dickinson, 2003 #9533] was an ISS.
129 For separation from Minla see Dong Feng (2010) [Dong Feng, 2010 #12499].
130 For date correction see Dickinson (2009) [Dickinson, 2009 #11609].
131 Includes croizati see Cheng (1987) [Cheng Tso-hsin, 1987 #739].
132 For separation from Minla see Dong Feng et al. (2010) [Dong Feng, 2010 #12499].
133 Includes cinereigenae; see Collar & Robson (2007) [Collar, 2007 #12226].
134 For replacement of generic name Crocias see Gregory & Dickinson (2012) [Gregory, 2012 #13835], with consequent change of authorship.
135 Apparently no species yet subjected to molecular screening.
136 Given as 1832 in Deignan (1964) [Deignan, 1964 #1250]. Browning & Monroe (1991) [Browning, 1991 #542] incorrectly supported 1831, see Dickinson (2008) [Dickinson, 2008 #11083].
