Močvarice

**Močvarice** (lat. Charadriiformes) su red iz razreda ptica. To je red s vrlo različitim porodicama i rodovima. Postoji oko 350 vrsta.

## Opis
Ove su ptice malene do srednje veličine.

Hrane se beskralježnjacima ili drugim malenim životinjama. Mnogi rodovi imaju duge noge sa tri prsta, a često i sa pokretnim četvrtim. Obično se gnijezde na tlu, ali neke vrste grade gnijezda u stablima. Mladunci su im potrkušci koji mogu odmah sami tražiti hranu. Gotovo sve ove ptice su dugovječne, a nastanjuju močvarna područja i obale, a neke nastanjuju i pustinje i guste šume. Žive u cijelom svijetu.

## Sistematika
Ovaj red ptica ima veliki broj porodica koje su međusobno prilično različite:

* Njorke (Alcidae)
* Lopočke trčkalice (Jacanidae)
* Oštrigari (Haematopodidae) 
* Šljuke sjemenjarke (Thinocoridae)
* Pedionomidae
* Šljuke (Scolopacidae)
* Rostratulidae
* Chionididae
* Ćukavice (Burhinidae)
* Vlastelice (Recurvirostridae) 
* Ćurlini (Ibidorhynchidae)
* Kulici (Charadriidae)
* Zlatari (Pluvianellidae)
* Dromah (Dromadidae)
* Pješčarke (Glareolidae)
* Pomornici (Stercorariidae)
* Vodosjeci (Rhynchopidae)
* Galebi (Laridae)
* Čigre (Sternidae)
