Myiomela sumatrana (Robinson & Kloss, 1918)

Muscicapidae — Chats, Old World Flycatchers

Sumatran Blue Robin, Myiomela sumatrana, is a Muscicapidae bird found in montane Sumatra in the Oriental Region. It is an Old World flycatcher and was described by Robinson and Kloss in 1918. It was once treated as part of the Javan Blue Robin under the name Sunda robin, but it is now recognised as separate. The species can be told from M. diana by the much darker plumage shown by both males and females.
