Pseudochelidoninae or Hirundininae? |

Pseudochelidoninae or Hirundininae? Pseudochelidoninae are river martins, not true swallows. Both African and European swallows are Hirundininae. Not to put too fine a point on it, it is generally accepted that all swallows are descended from African species. Both African and European species when unladen have a cruising airspeed of approximately 25 mph, but they can reach 40 or 50 mph in short bursts. Chinese swallows are about the same. -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |
