Corvides

Bird clade in the order of Passeriformes

Corvides is a clade of birds in the order of Passeriformes.[1] Previously referred to as the core Corvoidea,[2] the evolutionary history and biogeography, behavior and eco-morphology of Corvides has been extensively studied.[3][2][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Corvides appear to represent an island radiation, which colonized all continents except Antarctica.[11]
