• Anatomy, Evolution, and Functional Significance of Cephalic Vasculature in Archosauria (2002, background): “Phylogenetic relationships of the extant avian taxa studied (topology after Sibley and Ahlquist 1990; Cooper et al. 2001; Cracraft 2001; Cracraft and Clarke 2001; Livezey and Zusi 2001).”
• Diversification of Neoaves: integration of molecular sequence data and fossils (2006, unknown): “The obtained topology suggests that the diurnal Apodiformes evolved within a radiation of nocturnal birds, indicating a nocturnal ancestor of Apodiformes.”
• Monophyletic groups within 'higher land birds' - comparison of morphological and molecular data (2003, background): “Monophyly of Nyctibiidae, Caprimulgidae, Aegothelidae and the Apodiformes also resulted from an analysis of Livezey and Zusi (2001), although these authors regarded their study preliminary and did not list any characters supporting the resulting phylogeny.”
