Pteruthius aeralatus ripleyi (White-browed Shrike-Babbler (ripleyi))

White-browed Shrike-Babbler (ripleyi)

Pteruthius aeralatus ripleyi Biswas, B 1960

The Himalayan shrike-babbler is a bird species found in the western Himalayas that belongs to the shrike-babbler group. The genus was once considered to be an aberrant Old World babbler and placed in the family Timaliidae until molecular phylogenetic studies showed them to be closely related to the vireos of the New World, leading to their addition in the family Vireonidae. Males and females have distinctive plumages, with the males being all black about with a cinnamon-rufous tertial patch and a distinctive white stripe running from behind the eye. The underside is whitish with some pinkish buff on the flanks. Females have a greyish head, lack the white stripe and have the upperparts and wings with greens, yellow and chestnut. The species is part of a cryptic species complex that was earlier considered as one species, white-browed shrike-babbler with several subspecies. Source: Wikipedia
