Animalia > Chordata > Aves > Passeriformes > Muscicapidae > Irania > Irania gutturalisIrania gutturalis (White-throated Robin)Synonyms: Cossypha gutturalis (homotypic) The white-throated robin (Irania gutturalis) is a small passerine bird that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family, Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, family Muscicapidae. It, and similar small European species, are often called chats. The genus name Irania is from Iran, the type locality, and the specific gutturalis is Medieval Latin for "of the throat". |
