Also known as Luke Giblin, Threskiornithidae

The family Threskiornithidae includes 35 extant species of large wading birds, and one more that became extinct in historical times. The family has been traditionally classified into two subfamilies, the ibises and the spoonbills; however, recent genetic studies have cast doubt on this arrangement, and have found the spoonbills to be nested within the Old World ibises, and the New World ibises as an early offshoot.

OverviewAI-generated

Threskiornithidae, commonly known as ibis and spoonbill families, is a taxonomic family within the class Aves. The group belongs to the phylum Chordata and is classified under the order Ciconiiformes, though it is also associated with the parent taxon Pelecaniformes. The authority for this family is attributed to Richmond, 1917, and its status is listed as accepted.

Members of this family inhabit marine, brackish, and freshwater environments. Their range includes Brazil. The family is governed by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature and is documented in the Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary.

The family Threskiornithidae includes 35 extant species of large wading birds, and one more that became extinct in historical times. The family has been traditionally classified into two subfamilies, the ibises and the spoonbills; however, recent genetic studies have cast doubt on this arrangement, and have found the spoonbills to be nested within the Old World ibises, and the New World ibises as an early offshoot. These studies found two major clades within the family, a widespread clade that includes the type genus Threskiornis and seven other genera (including the spoonbills) occurring in both the Old and New Worlds, and a smaller group of entirely New World species, with five genera.

==Taxonomy== The spoonbills and ibises were once thought to be related to other groups of long-legged wading birds in the order Ciconiiformes, until genetic studies found that they are members of the order Pelecaniformes. In response to these findings, the International Ornithological Congress (IOC) reclassified Threskiornithidae and their sister taxa Ardeidae under the order Pelecaniformes, instead of the previous order of Ciconiiformes, in 2010.
