The shortwings are colourful medium-sized mostly insectivorous birds in the genus ''Brachypteryx'' of the thrush family Turdidae, although some taxonomists place them in the Old World Flycatcher family Muscicapidae. They show strong sexual plumage dimorphism. All are southeast Asian species. Most shortwings are place in the genus ''Brachypteryx''. * Gould's shortwing, ''Brachypteryx stellata'' * Rusty-bellied shortwing, ''Brachypteryx hyperythra'' * Lesser shortwing, ''Brachypteryx leucophrys'' * White-browed shortwing, ''Brachypteryx montana'' Two other species, formerly placed in Brachypteryx, are now in two other genera. * Great shortwing, ''Heinrichia calligyna'' * Nilgiri blue robin (also known at Nilgiri shortwing), ''Myiomela major'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shortwing (bird)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
