Crimson-breasted shrike : ウィキペディア英語版 | Crimson-breasted shrike
The crimson-breasted shrike (''Laniarius atrococcineus'') or the crimson-breasted gonolek, ('gonolek' - supposedly imitative of its call),〔http://universalium.academic.ru/196551/shrike〕 is a southern African bird. The species is closely related to two other bushshrikes, the yellow-crowned gonolek (''Laniarius barbarus'') and the black-headed gonolek (''Laniarius erythrogaster'') of East Africa. ==History== The species was first collected by William John Burchell in 1811 near the confluence of the Vaal and Orange Rivers. He named it ''atrococcineus'' meaning 'black/red', finding the striking colour combination quite remarkable. The generic name ''Laniarius'' was coined by the French ornithologist Louis Jean Pierre Vieillot and was meant to call attention to the butcher-like habits of the group. In South West Africa its colours reminded Germans of their homeland flag and it therefore became the ''Reichsvogel'' ("Empire bird").
