Corvides is an infraorder clade of birds in the order of Passeriformes. Previously referred to as the core Corvoidea, the evolutionary history and biogeography, behavior and eco-morphology of Corvides has been extensively studied. Corvides appear to represent an island radiation, which colonized all continents except Antarctica.
