This family is the first among the "nine-primaried oscines". All remaining families are in this group.

M. tschutschensis Eastern Yellow-Wagtail
NOTE: Taxonomy of this species group is in flux. It is generally believed that eastern forms, including those that are thought to have occurred in the western Pacific Region, are part of a group of taxa, perhaps species themselves, but for now perhaps best considered subspecies of eastern M. t. tschutschensis. Although Christidis and Boles (2008) accepted as species on the Australian list M. tschutschensis Eastern Yellow Wagtail and M. taivana Green-headed Yellow Wagtail, genetic studies (Alström and Mild 2003; Ödeen and Björklund 2003) found insufficient difference to warrant specific status.

Acc Palau (Babelthuap; photo, Pratt and Etpison 2008).

A. novaeseelandiae New Zealand Pipit
NOTE: This taxon, A. australis, A. richardi, A. cinnamomeus, and A. rufulus are sometimes considered conspecific as Richard's Pipit A. richardi), but Tavares and Baker (2008) showed genetic differentiaton between A. australis and A. novaeseelandiae to warrant species status of each. Allozyme separation distances indicate that novaeseelandiae is distinct at the species level from the island taxa (i>chathamensis, aucklandicus, and steindachneri (Foggo et al 1997); Thompson et al (2005) noted that birds of Campbell I appear much yellower than those on Auckland Is, suggesting further study on their taxonomic status. Nevertheless, OSNZ (2010) retained the four taxa as subspecies of A. novaeseelandiae.

FRINGILLIDAE (54 species)

Boyd divides the Fringillidae of Sibley and Monroe (1990) into 11 families, 8 of which are represented in the Pacific Region, and are the final 8 families in this checklist: Fringillidae, Calcariidae, Embirizidae, Arremonidae, Parulidae, Icteridae, Cardinalidae, and Thraupidae. Within Fringillidae, recent genetic data show that Euphonias and Hawaiian Honeycreepers are both now part of the newly-constituted Fringillidae (AOU 2003, Groth 1998, Klicka et al 2000, Yuri and Mindell 2002, Zuccon et al 2012, Arnaiz-Villena et al 2007, Lerner et al 2011). Regarding Euphonias, Boyd notes: "The common ancestor of the Euphoniinae/Carduelinae clade was likely an Old World species. Something must connect it with the Neotropical Euphoniinae, but that something is missing without a trace. Being geographically contiguous and more similar in appearance, the position of the Carduelinae is easy to understand. Euphoniinae is a mystery that unscores the importance of extinction in creating the bird distribution we currently see". The sequence proposed by Boyd for Fringillidae has been followed here, but not necessarily all of Boyd's taxonomic decisions; IOC v7.2 has been preferred in some instances in this regard.

Hemignathus obscurus Lesser Akialoa
NOTE: Pratt (in Scott et al 2001, 2005) discussed the Akialoas, including difference at the generic level from Hemignathus as Akialoa. Apparent sympatry, based on palaeontological evidence, indicated five species, all of which are now extinct (Olson and James 1995): Akialoa obscura Hawaii Akialoa, A. lanaiensis Maui Nui Akialoa, A. ellisiana Oahu Akialoa, A. stejnegeri Kauai Akialoa, and A. upupirostris Hoopoe-billed Akialoa. Boyd merged genus Akialoa (including the splits suggested by Pratt 2005) with Hemignathus, noting that paraphyly within former Akialoa was mitigated when "portions of Hemignathus have been split off as Chlorodrepanis and Viridonia. This has allowed restoration of the name Hemignathus wilsoni for the Akiapolaau." Boyd is followed herein, resulting in 9 species within Hemignathus, and separate genera Chlorodrepanis and Viridonia. IOC v7.2 however, retained Akialoa as a separate genus.
Extinct. Res formerly Hawaiian Is (Hawaii, last 1903, Pyle and Pyle 2009).

NOTE: Recent studies have indicated that traditional Carduelis is monophyletic, requiring retention of Acanthis (see Christidis and Boles 2008). Status of the various forms of redpoll is unsettled and controversial. Until consensus is reached, herein Boyd is followed, lumping all redpolls into one species Holarctic Redpoll A. flammea. IOC v7.2 notes similar uncertainty. Subspecies thus become equivocal; following are those purported to have occurred in the Pacific Region.
