Cossypha
''Cossypha'' are small insectivorous birds, with most species called robin-chats. They were formerly in the thrush family Turdidae, but are now more often treated as part of the Old World flycatcher Muscicapidae. These are African woodland dwelling species, but some have become adapted to sites around human habitation.
