Sri Lanka scimitar babbler
The Sri Lanka scimitar babbler or Ceylon scimitar babbler (''Pomatorhinus melanurus'') is an Old World babbler. It is endemic to the island of Sri Lanka, and was formerly treated as a subspecies of Indian scimitar babbler.〔Collar, NJ (2006) A partial revision of the Asian babblers (Timaliidae). Forktail 22:85–112 (PDF )〕 The nominate form is found in the western part of wet hill regions of Sri Lanka, while race ''holdsworthi'' is found in the dry lowlands and eastern hills.〔Kaluthota, CD (2009) Sri Lanka Scimitar Babbler - A recent addition to the endemic birds of Sri Lanka.

==In culture==
Most scimitar babbler species are referred as ''parandel kurulla'' by the Sinhala speaking community. The term 'parandel' refers to dried grass and probably refers to the color of the bird. The vernacular name of the bird ''parandel kurulla'' roughly translates to English as 'dried-grass colored bird'. This bird appears in a 4.50 rupee Sri Lankan postal stamp.〔http://www.birdtheme.org/country/srilanka.html〕
