The affinities of the New Zealand passerine genus Turnagra

Notornis, 30 (4), 319-336

S.L. Olson; K.C. Parkes; M.H. Clench; S.R. Borecky (1983)

Article Type: Paper

The external structure, pterylosis, myology, and osteology of Turnagra show that this genus belongs in the bird-of-paradise/ bowerbird assemblage and is not closely related to the Pachycephalinae. Turnagra appears to be the most primitive member of this assemblage, sharing similarities both with the paradisaeid subfamily Cnemophilinae and with the Ptilonorhynchidae.
