Remizidae

The penduline tits are a group of small passerine birds, related to the true tits. All but the Verdin and Fire-capped Tit make elaborate bag nests hanging from trees, usually over water; inclusion of the Fire-capped Tit in this family is disputed by some authorities. They are insectivores.

There are 13 species in 5 genera, following Harrap & Quinn, Tits, Nuthatches & Treecreepers.
