Stiphrornis erythrothorax Hartlaub, 1855 |
The Forest Robin, Stiphrornis erythrothorax, is a small passerine bird that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, family Muscicapidae. It, and similar small species, are often called chats.
