Phaethoquornithes is a clade of birds that contains Eurypygimorphae and Aequornithes,[4] which was first recovered by genome analysis in 2014.[5] Members of Eurypygimorphae were originally classified in the obsolete group Metaves,[clarification needed] and Aequornithes were classified as the sister taxon to Musophagiformes or Gruiformes.[6][7]
This group has also been informally called Ardeae.[8] Older classifications have used Ardeae in a different sense, as a suborder of Ciconiiformes containing herons and related species.[9]
