Rück's Blue Flycatcher
Rück's blue flycatcher (''Cyornis ruckii'') is a passerine bird in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae. It is known from only four specimens and is endemic to a small area in northeast Sumatra, Indonesia, inhabiting Old-growth forest, primary lowland forest. Although all specimens share common characteristics, such as a black Beak, bill, brown Iris (anatomy), iris, and black feet, two of the collected specimens show some physical discrepancy with the other two. They were initially described as ''Cyornis vanheysti'' before being accepted as specimens of ''C. ruckii''. Rück's blue flycatcher has also been compared to other species of ''Cyornis''. The species is listed as "Critically Endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as it has not been recorded since 1918. It has been protected by Indonesian law since 1972. It also might have been affected by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Taxonomy Rück's blue flycatcher was first described by the French ...

Tickell's Blue Flycatcher
Tickell's blue flycatcher (''Cyornis tickelliae'') is a small passerine bird in the flycatcher family. This is an insectivorous species which breeds in tropical Asia, from the Indian Subcontinent eastwards to Bangladesh and western Myanmar.

The name commemorates the wife of the British ornithologist Samuel Tickell who collected in India and Burma. Description Tickell's blue flycatcher is about 11–12 cm long. It sits upright and forages mainly in the overgrowth. The male's upper parts are bright blue, its throat and breast are red, and the rest of the underparts are white. The female is duller blue with a brighter blue brow, shoulder, rump, and tail. It hybridizes with the pale-chinned blue flycatcher (''Cyornis poliogenys'') in the Eastern Ghats of India and these hybrids have someti ...
