Traditional genus-level classification of extant and recently extinct (red letters) Dasyornithidae following the AviList checklist v2025. (link) The number of subspecies is given in parentheses. The intrinsic phylogeny has been studied by Marki et al. (2017), and matches that of the BOW Phylogeny Explorer tree v1.6. (link)
