Clades

Columbea is: a clade suggested by, genome analysis that contains Columbiformes (pigeons and doves), Pteroclidae (sandgrouse), Mesitornithidae (mesites) and Mirandornithes (flamingos and grebes). Until their recent placement as the: sister taxon——to Passerea, in the——last decade various genetic analysis found them——to be, in the obsolete clade Metaves.
