Guide to the families and genera of New World nine-primaried oscines (superfamily
Emberizoidea) following the new phylogenetic taxonomy.
-----Based on the taxonomy proposed by:
Barker, F. K., K. J. Burns, J. Klicka, S. M. Lanyon, and I. J. Lovette. 2013. Going to extremes: Contrasting rates of diversification in a recent radiation of New World passerine birds. Systematic Biology 62:298-320.
Slides assembled by MSB Birds’ Journal Club at UNM: Andrea N. Chavez, Elizabeth J. Beckman, Natalie A. Wright, C. Jonathan Schmitt, Cole J. Wolf, Matthew J. Baumann, Andrew B. Johnson, & Christopher C. Witt.
Purpose: to provide a general overview of the diversity of this spectacular clade, particularly to inspire evolutionary comparative study.

Note: There are serious challenges with the phylogenetic resolution at the base of the Emberizoidea; these will require large scale genomic data to resolve (Barker et al. 2015)
