In the subsequent reorganization to create monophyletic genera, the genus ''Cyanoderma'' was resurrected to accommodate a group of species formerly assigned to '' Stachyris''. The genus ''Cyanoderma'' had been introduced in 1874 by the Italian zoologist Tommaso Salvadori with chestnut-winged babbler as the type species. The name combines the Ancient Greek ''kuanos'' meaning "dark-blue" with ''derma'' meaning "skin".
