White-bellied Blue Robin
Myiomela albiventrisThe White-bellied Blue Robin (Myiomela albiventris) refers to a kind of bird in the Muscicapidae family endemic to the Shola forests of the higher hills of southern India. The Nilgiri Blue Robin and this species were once considered as sub-species of a single species (M. major) and in 2005 were elevated again to full species by Pamela C. Rasmussen, a treatment that is followed by a few lists. The genus placement remains uncertain. This small bird is found on the forest floor and undergrowth of dense forest patches sheltered in the valleys of montane grassland, a restricted and threatened habitat.
This chat-like bird is long-legged and appears chunky with its short tail and wing. Although sharing similar habits and shape, the two species differ in plumage and both may show slight sexual dimorphism. Differences in iris colour between the females have been suggested for M. albiventris. The White-bellied Blue Robin (M. albiventris) has a black face mask with a short whitish brow. The upperside and breast are slaty blue grading to grey on the flanks. The centre of the belly and vent is white.
