The Apostlebirds are a small Australian family composed of just two species: the Apostlebird (left) and the
White-winged Chough Corcorax melanorhamphos. One recent text (Simpson & Day 1996) calls this family
the "Australian Mud-Nesters" but others (e.g., Clements 1991) use the term "Mudnest Builders" for another
two-species family -- the Grallinidae. [ eng ] |
