Abstract: Similarities between New World and Old World vultures have been interpreted to reflect a close relationship and to suggest the inclusion of both in Accipitridae (Falconiformes). However, deeper analyses indicated that the placement of the New World vultures (cathartids) in this Order is uncertain. Chromosome analysis has shown that cathartids retained a karyotype similar to the putative avian ancestor. In order to verify the occurrence of intrachromosomal rearrangements in cathartids, we hybridized whole chrom… Show more

“…Hence, in G. gallus and Cathartes aura these LAL segments show the same order, probably corresponding to the ancestral form, as they belong to two distant avian lineages-Galloanserae and Neoaves, (de Oliveira et al 2010;Tagliarini et al 2011). But two species of Turdus, and Elaenia spectabilis (Oscine and Suboscine Passeriformes, respectively) show patterns of multiple paracentric and pericentric inversions in the chromosome corresponding to GGA1q (Kretschmer et al 2014(Kretschmer et al , 2015.…”

“…LAL wcp revealed the occurrence of multiple inversions in two different chromosomes of ESP: pair 2, corresponding to GGA1q, and pair 5, which is homologous to GGA1p.Cross‐species experiments using LAL and GGA probes in G . gallus and Cathartes aura , two species with very similar karyotypes belonging to different orders, showed a similar distribution of LAL chromosomes, suggesting that this could be the ancestral sequence of segments (de Oliveira et al ., ; Tagliarini et al ., ). On the other hand, two species of genus Turdus (Passeriformes) showed a pattern of paracentric and pericentric inversions in these regions, similar to those that we found in ESP, suggesting that these inversions correspond to an apomorphic condition (Kretschmer et al ., ).…”

“…Bildstein (2017), asserted that members of Accipitridae, Pandionidae, and Sagittariidae are ''core'' raptors because they share a common ancestor, but noted that most biologists, including himself, consider vultures to be raptors. Similarly, during the debate over whether New World vultures (Cathartiformes) were more closely related to storks (Ciconiiformes) or raptors, several authors questioned whether cathartids were birds of prey (Piper 1994, Seibold and Helbig 1995, Tagliarini et al 2011. That said, most references listing species of diurnal raptors include Old and New World vultures (e.g., Brown and Amadon 1968, Brown 1976a, Ferguson-Lees and Christie 2001.…”
