Synonyma

Tetraonidae Vigors, 1825

Tetraoninae sunt subfamilia phasianidarum ordinis Galliformium. Quae classificatio ab investigationibus DNA mitochondrialis sustinetur, et ab American Ornithologists' Union, ITIS, aliisque eruditis adhibetur. Tetraoninae temperatas et subarcticas hemisphaerii septentrionalis regiones habitant, a silvis pinorum ad tesquas et montes, a parallelo 83 septentrionali (Lagopus muta in Groenlandia septentrionali) ad parallelum 28 septentrionalem (Tympanuchus cupido attwateri in Texia).
