Animalia > Chordata > Aves > Passeriformes > Sylviidae > Chrysomma > Chrysomma altirostreChrysomma altirostre (Jerdon's Babbler)Synonyms: Moupinia altirostris altirostris Jerdon's babbler (Chrysomma altirostre) is an endangered passerine bird from South Asia. Formerly placed in the Timaliidae family – hence the common name "babbler" –, the genus Chrysomma and its relatives are actually closer to the typical warblers and parrotbills in the Sylviidae. The common name commemorates the surgeon-naturalist Thomas C. Jerdon. |
