It is perhaps notable that when Boris Spulski established the Odontopterygia in 1910, he did this partly because he noted some of the similarities between pseudotooth birds and waterfowl listed above.
É interesante notar que cando Boris Spulski estableceu o grupo Odontopterygia en 1910, fíxoo en parte porque notou algunhas similitudes entre as aves pseudodentadas e as Galloanserae xa mencionadas antes.
