Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox
The chestnut-winged babbler (Cyanoderma erythropterum) is a babbler species in the family Timaliidae.
Description
The chestnut-winged babbler is chestnut-brown with a greyish face and underparts, and is Template:Cvt long. It feeds on small Coleoptera beetles, Phasmida insects, ants, and Hemiptera bugs.[1] Its foraging strategy is gleaning.[2]
Timalia erythroptera was the scientific name proposed by Edward Blyth in 1842 for an olive-brown babbler from Nepal.[3] It was later placed in the genus Stachyris, but since 2020 is recognised as a Cyanoderma species.[4][1] The grey-hooded babbler (C. bicolor) of Borneo was formerly considered conspecific.[5]
Distribution and habitat
The chestnut-winged babbler occurs in the Malay Peninsula from southern Thailand to Singapore, and in Sumatra. It inhabits forests and shrublands up to an elevation of Template:Cvt. It is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.[6]
