The 13 pages that link to Palaeognathae, each with the reason it gives.

• GalliformesCompared with: Comparisons with this separate bird lineage help clarify galliform placement in bird evolution.

• Bird taxonomyBroader topic: Its unusual distribution and flightlessness have made its relationships a central taxonomic problem.

• OstrichNarrower topic: Ostriches belong to this evolutionary lineage, whose living members do not form a simple flightless clade.

• FlightlessnessNarrower topic: Comparisons within this group complicate the idea that all ratites inherited flightlessness from one ancestor.

• RatiteNarrower topic: Modern classification places ratites within this broader evolutionary grouping.

• NeornithesBroader topic: Its members represent one of the deepest divergences among living Neornithes.

• Elephant birdNarrower topic: Genomic evidence places elephant birds within this broader bird lineage.

• HesperornisCompared with: Modern flightless paleognaths show a different evolutionary route to losing flight.

• Common ostrichNarrower topic: This broader lineage places ostriches among several distinctive bird groups.

• AsteriornisCompared with: Its evolutionary position is distinct from the paleognath lineage.

• TinamouNarrower topic: Tinamous belong to this lineage despite retaining the ability to fly.

• DromornisRelated: Its placement among bird lineages has been debated in relation to paleognaths.

• PresbyornisCompared with: Presbyornis was a waterfowl, not a member of this contrasting major bird lineage.
