LIMPKIN   -   ARAMIDAE

Limpkin Aramus guarauna guarauna Fazenda Santa Tereza (Pantanal Wildlife Center), Mato Grosso state, Brazil. A decidedly odd bird of neotropical marshes (it also reaches South Florida). The only member of the family Aramidae, its closest relatives are apparently the cranes. (S6)
