scopidae मीनिंग इन हिंदी

The current International Ornithological Committee classification has pelicans grouped with the shoebill ( Balaenicipitidae ), hamerkop ( Scopidae ), herons, egrets and bitterns ( Ardeidae ).
Such a treatment is unlikely to be completely wrong in either case, as the pseudotooth birds are well distinct from the Presbyornithidae and Scopidae, today generally regarded as the very basal divergences of, respectively, the Anseriformes and the pelican-stork group.
