Stachyris
''Stachyris'' is a genus of passerine birds in the Old World babbler family Timaliidae. Taxonomy The genus ''Stachyris'' was introduced in 1844 in an article by the English zoologist Edward Blyth in which he quotes a diagnosis by Brian Houghton Hodgson. Hodgson designated the type species as the grey-throated babbler. The genus name combines the Ancient Greek ''stakhus'' meaning "ear of wheat" and ''rhis'', ''rhinos'' meaning "nostrils". Species The genus includes the following species: For other former ''Stachyris'' species see under ''Cyanoderma'', ''Sterrhoptilus'' and ''Zosterornis''. References *Collar, N. J. & Robson, C. 2007.

Sikkim Wedge-billed Babbler
The Sikkim wedge-billed babbler or blackish-breasted babbler (''Stachyris humei'') is a species of bird in the Old World babbler family (Timaliidae). It is named for the Indian state of Sikkim. It is found in the Indian subcontinent and nearby parts of Southeast Asia. Its range includes Bhutan, India, Myanmar, and Nepal. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss. Systematics This species described by Louis Mandelli Louis Hildebrand Mandelli (1833–1880) was an Italian settler in India, a tea planter and amateur zoologist and ornithologist. Living in Darjeeling and collecting specimens of birds and animals around Sikkim, he discovered many species from the reg ... based on specimens from Sikkim and placed in the genus ''Heterorhynchus'' which was however preoccupied leading to it briefly being placed in the genus ''Stachyrirhynchus'' by Hume.

Nonggang Babbler
The Nonggang babbler (''Stachyris nonggangensis'') is a recently described species of bird in the family Timaliidae. This species was first observed by the ornithologists Zhou Fang and Jiang Aiwu while surveying the Nonggang Natural Reserve (弄岗自然保护区) in Guangxi, China, in February 2005. The type specimen was captured in January 2006, and the species was formally described in 2008. In appearance it is similar to the sooty babbler (''S. herberti''), but differs in having a pale iris, a white crescent behind the ear, a white throat patch with black spots, and a black bill. In general behaviour it resembles a wren-babbler of the genus '' Napothera'' in that it prefers running to flying, and seems to spend most of its time on the ground foraging for insects between rocks and under fallen leaves. Its natural habitat is karst seasonal rainforest that, following selective cutting, is dominated by ''Burretiodendron hsienmu''. The known range is currently restricted ...
