Indian robin : ウィキペディア英語版
Indian robin

The Indian robin (''Saxicoloides fulicatus''〔Rasmussen & Anderton emend the species epithet from ''fulicata'' to ''fulicatus'' since ''Saxicola'' is masculine and the ''-oides'' ending is always masculine according to ICZN Code 30.1.4.4. (ICZN Code ). See also 〕) is a species of bird in the family Muscicapidae.
It is widespread in the Indian subcontinent, and ranges across Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. The males of northern populations have a brown back whose extent gradually reduces southwards with populations in the southern peninsula having an all black back. They are commonly found in open scrub areas and often seen running along the ground or perching on low thorny shrubs and rocks. Their long tails are held erect and their chestnut undertail covert and dark body make them easily distinguishable from the pied bushchat and the oriental magpie robin.
==Description==

The Indian robin is sexually dimorphic in plumage with the male being mainly black with a white shoulder patch or stripe whose visible extent can vary with posture. The northern populations have the upper plumage brownish while the southern populations are black above. The males have chestnut undertail coverts and these are visible as the bird usually holds the 6–8 cm long tail raised upright. The females are brownish above, have no white shoulder stripe and are greyish below with the vent a paler shade of chestnut than the males. Birds of the northern populations are larger than those from southern India or Sri Lanka. Juvenile birds are much like females but the throat is mottled.〔
Several populations are named based on their plumage differences. The nominate subspecies refers to the population found across southern Peninsular India. Race ''leucopterus'' is found in Sri Lanka. Race ''cambaiensis'' of western India and ''erythrura'' (=''erythrurus'') of eastern India (south to around Sambalpur) have the males with brown backs. The population ''intermedius'' includes forms between ''cambaiensis'', ''erythrura'' and ''fulicata'' in central India and parts of the Deccan region. A race ''munda'' was named for a specimen from Punjab but is now considered synonymous with ''cambaiensis''. Older classifications treat the population in southern India under the name ''ptymatura'' while considering the type locality as Sri Lanka although the type locality has subsequently been restricted to Pondicherry.
Local names recorded by Jerdon include ''Nalanchi'' (Telugu), ''Wannatikuruvi'' (Tamil, ''Washerman bird''), ''Kalchuri'' (Hindi) and ''Paan kiriththaa'' (Sinhala). The genus name indicates that it looks similar to ''Saxicola'', the genus of the pied bushchat, a bird often found in similar habitats.
