Clade of birds
Coraciimorphae is a
clade of birds that contains the order
Coliiformes (mousebirds) and the clade
Cavitaves (a large assemblage of birds that includes
woodpeckers ,
kingfishers and
trogons ).

[5] The name however was coined in the 1990s by
Sibley and Ahlquist based on their
DNA-DNA hybridization studies conducted in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s.
[6] However their Coraciimorphae only contains
Trogoniformes and
Coraciiformes .
