Examples of "scrubwrens"
Acanthizidae –
scrubwrens
, thornbills, and gerygones
Pardalotidae – pardalotes,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, and gerygones
Historically, the family Pardalotidae included pardalotes and acanthizid warblers; gerygones,
scrubwrens
and thornbills .
Birds that may be spotted in the park include: Australian magpies ("Cracticus tibicen"), golden whistlers ("Pachycephala pectoralis"), green winged pigeons, grey fantails ("Rhipidura"), kookaburras (genus "Dacelo"), large-billed
scrubwrens
("Sericornis magnirostris"), spotted pardalotes ("Pardalotus punctatus"), pied currawongs ("Strepera graculina"), striated thornbills ("Acanthiza lineata") and white-browed
scrubwrens
("Sericornis frontalis").
Due to the waterway in Wyndham Waters, there are many types of birds around the area. Examples of these birds are shovelers, mallards, firetails, moorhens and
scrubwrens
.
Honeyeaters are related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, etc.), and the Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
Molecular analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, etc.), and the Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
Molecular analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,

, thornbills, etc.), and the Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
The next closest relative outside the genus is the much larger but similarly marked blue-faced honeyeater. More recently, DNA analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, etc.), and the Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
DNA analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,

, thornbills, etc.), and the Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily. The Papuan black myzomela, "(Myzomela nigrita)", found in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea is also known as the black honeyeater. It is a different but related species.

The scrubtit ("Acanthornis magna") is a species of bird in the thornbill family Acanthizidae. It is endemic to Tasmania and King Island in Australia. Its natural habitat is the temperate rainforest, "Nothofagus" beech forest and eucalypt woodland. It is a small species that resembles the "Sericornis"
scrubwrens
(with which it was once placed).
Analysis of DNA showed that the closest relative of the red wattlebird is the yellow wattlebird of Tasmania, the pair splitting from the ancestor of the regent honeyeater—their next closest relative. Honeyeaters are related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, etc.), and Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in the large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
Wombats are a common sight throughout the area, while pademelons, Tasmanian devils and echidnas can also be seen. Numerous bird species can be found, including green rosellas, black currawongs, pink robins and Tasmanian
scrubwrens
, while peregrine falcons and wedge-tailed eagles nest on the mountains cliffs. Tiger snakes are a highly venomous snake species known to be found in the area.
Sericornis is a genus of small, mainly insectivorous birds, the
scrubwrens
. They are placed in the family Acanthizidae which was included in the Pardalotidae in the Sibley-Ahlquist taxonomy. However, this placement was always controversial and indeed has since turned out to be false.
Birds that frequent this habitat include: Golden whistlers ("Pachycephala pectoralis"), yellow-tailed black cockatoos ("Calyptorhynchus funereus"), laughing kookaburra ("Dacelo novaeguineae"), eastern whipbirds ("Psophodes olivaceus"), New Holland honeyeaters ("Phylidonyris novaehollandiae"), eastern spinebill ("Acanthorhynchus tenuirostris"), rufous whistlers ("Pachycephala rufiventris"), willie wagtails ("Rhipidura leucophrys"), superb fairywrens ("Malurus cyaneus"), crimson rosellas/mountain lowry ("Platycercus elegans"), yellow-rumped thornbills ("Acanthiza chrysorrhoa)" and white-browed
scrubwrens
("Sericornis frontalis").
Scrubwrens
are predominantly insectivorous. They can be hard to spot but are very vocal and easy to localise. They occur in small groups of up to six birds and engage in cooperative breeding; namely that group members all help to feed and rear the young.
The bell miner ("Manoria melanophrys") belongs to the family of honeyeaters and Australian chats (Meliphagidae), which is part of the super family Meliphagoidea that also comprises the Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, and thornbills (Acanthizidae); bristlebirds (Dasyornithidae); fairy-wrens (Maluridae); and pardalotes (Pardalotidae).
They are gregarious and rarely seen singly. Feeding flocks are usually small parties of up to ten, and less often up to 20 birds, associating with brown thornbill ("A. pusilla"), yellow-rumped thornbill ("A. chrysorrhoa"), southern whiteface ("Aphelocephala leucopsis"), white-browed
scrubwrens
("Sericornis frontalis") or redthroats ("Pyrrholaemus brunneus"), and occasionally joined by silvereyes ("Zosterops lateralis").
Molecular study shows its closest relative to be the silver-crowned friarbird within the genus "Philemon". DNA analysis has shown honeyeaters to be related to the Pardalotidae (pardalotes), Acanthizidae (Australian warblers,
scrubwrens
, thornbills, etc.), and Maluridae (Australian fairy-wrens) in a large Meliphagoidea superfamily.
