Familia
Aramidae is a bird family in the order Gruiformes. The limpkin (Aramus guarauna) is the only living member of this family, although other species are known from the fossil record, such as Papulavis annae from the Eocene of France, Aramus paludigrus from the Middle Miocene of Colombia and Badistornis aramus from the Oligocene of South Dakota, USA. Another Oligocene fossil from Europe, Parvigrus pohli, has been described as a mosaic of the features shared by the limpkins and the cranes.
Orden
The Gruiformes are an order containing a considerable number of living and extinct bird families, with a widespread geographical diversity. Gruiform means 'crane form'. Traditionally, a number of wading and terrestrial bird families that did not seem to belong to any other order were classified together as Gruiformes.
