Superregnum: Eukaryota Name Laniocera Lesson, 1841 Reference Revue Zoologique, par la Société Cuvierienne 3(1840) p.353 Laniocera is a genus of bird in the Tityridae family. It has traditionally been placed in the cotinga family, but evidence strongly suggest it is better placed in Tityridae[1], where now placed by SACC. They share the common name "mourner" with the species in the genera Schiffornis, Laniisoma and Rhytipterna. * Speckled Mourner, Laniocera rufescens References 1. ^ Adopt the Family Tityridae - South American Classification Committee (2007)
