Circa quadraginta; vide Systematica et evolutionem.

Rallidae sunt magna parvarum mediarumve avium familia cosmopolitana, quae gravem biodiversitatem praestat. Multae familiae species terra humida utuntur, quamquam familia in omnibus habitationibus terrestrialibus praeter regiones desertas, polares, et alpinas supra finem nivium habitat.

Porphyrio hochstetteri a tergo

Rallidae in omne continenti praeter Antarcticam inveniuntur, et sunt in insulis multae species. Communissimae habitationes sunt paludes et silvae densae. Rallidae praecipue sunt confertarum herbarum cupidae.^[1]
