Family Phalacrocoracidae - Cormorants, Shags [1]
Until recently, the genera of cormorants and the distinctions between "shags" and "cormorants" have remained mostly unresolved due to conflicts among
studies and missing taxa (Siegel-Causey 1988; Kennedy et al. 2000; Christidis & Boles 2008). We follow the comprehensive phylogenetic studies of
Kennedy & Spencer (2014) and Kennedy et al. (2019) in resequencing this family. Generic revisions were accepted for the North American species by
NACC (Chesser et al. 2021) but narrowly declined by SACC (Proposal 648).
Phalacrocoracidae genera: 7
Phalacrocoracidae species: 42
Phalacrocoracidae subspecies: 28
Phalacrocoracidae Breeding Range: MA, AF, SO, IO, PAL, NA, OR, AU, PO, SA [2]

Phalacrocoracidae genera[edit]
| Genus + authority | spp | Br. range |
au | yr | id | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Microcarbo Bonaparte, 1856 | 5 | OR AU AF PAL | Bona | 1856 | 1 | Microcarbo cormorants are split from Phalacrocorax (Siegel-Causey 1988; Kennedy et al. 2000; Christidis & Boles 2008). |
| Poikilocarbo Boetticher, 1935 | 1 | SA | Boet | 1935 | 2 | Resurrection of Poikilocarbo as a monotypic genus was suggested for the highly divergent P. gaimardi (Kennedy & Spencer 2014). |
| Urile Bonaparte, 1856 | 4 | NA PO PAL MA | Bona | 1856 | 3 | Resurrect Urile for the well-supported clade of North Pacific cormorants (Kennedy & Spencer 2014; Chesser et al. 2021). |
| Phalacrocorax Brisson, 1760 | 12 | OR AU NA AF PAL | Bris | 1760 | 4 | |
| Gulosus Montagu, 1813 | 1 | AF PAL | Mont | 1813 | 5 | Resurrection of the monotypic genus Gulosus was proposed for the genetically highly divergent European Shag (Kennedy & Spencer 2014). |
| Nannopterum Sharpe, 1899 | 3 | NA MA SA | Shar | 1899 | 6 | Resurrection of Nannopterum was proposed for three New World species formerly assigned to Phalacrocorax, but which are in a different clade from Phalacrocorax s.s. and are more closely related to Leucocarbo (Kennedy & Spencer 2014, Chesser et al. 2021). Note change in gender from masculine to neuter. |
| Leucocarbo Bonaparte, 1856 | 16 | AU SO IO SA | Bona | 1856 | 7 | Genus Leucocarbo includes at least 10 core species (Kennedy et al. 2000; Christidis & Boles 2008). |
