我利用定性的骨学特征对趾甲科最近的分类群进行了系统发育分析。这个科包括两个亚科。鸬鹚科(Phalacrocoracinae)包括四属全黑,滨栖物种:Microcarbo(微型鸬鹚),Compsohalieus(海洋鸬鹚),Hypoleucos(中鸬鹚)和Phalacrocorax(大鸬鹚)。leucocarinae (shags)包括五个不同的羽毛,沿海和远洋物种:Leucocarbo(鸟鸟shags), Notocarbo(蓝眼shags), Nesocarbo(坎贝尔岛Shag), Euleucocarbo(新西兰蓝眼shags)和Stictocarbo(悬崖shags)。凤蝶科的凤蝶属与凤蝶科的关系仍有问题,尚未解决。使用颅骨或颅骨后特征的其他分析产生了可比较的结果,仅比较颅骨时获得的差异最大。我讨论了家族中同质性的本质:鸬鹚的特点是趋同,而丑八怪的特点是逆转。羽毛的样式与功能相关,但系统发育历史可能是最终的因素。
I undertook a phylogenetic analysis of the Recent taxa of Phalacrocoracidae using qualitative osteological characters. The family comprises two subfamilies. The Phalacrocoracinae (cormorants) comprise four genera of all-dark, littorine species: Microcarbo (microcormorants), Compsohalieus (marine cormorants), Hypoleucos (mesocormorants), and Phalacrocorax (macrocormorants). The Leucocarboninae (shags) comprise five genera of variably plumaged, littorine, and pelagic species: Leucocarbo (guano shags), Notocarbo (blueeyed shags), Nesocarbo (Campbell Island Shag), Euleucocarbo (New Zealand blue-eyed shags), and Stictocarbo (cliff shags). The relationship of the anhingas (Anhingidae) to the Phalacrocoracidae remains problematical and unresolved. Additional analyses using cranial or postcranial characters produced comparable results, with the greatest divergence obtained when only crania were compared. I discuss the nature of homoplasy in the family: cormorants are characterized by convergences, hags by reversals. Plumage patterns have functional correlates, but phylogenetic history may be the ultimate factor.
