Falconimorphae

overorden av falkefugler

Falconimorphae (rovfugllignende fugler) var en tid regnet som en overorden i gruppen moderne fugler (Neoaves). Gruppa inkluderte de to ordenene falkefugler (Falconiformes) og ugler (Strigiformes), som da ble regnet som søstergrupper.[1][2] Falconimorphae er imidlertid ikke lenger gyldig, og Falconiformes er nå plassert i Eufalconimorphae, mens Strigiformes er plassert i Afroaves.[3]
