		The Muscicapidae family is battling with the Mimidae clan.
		While the Muscicapidae are holed up in the deep woods, the Mimidae are claiming the territory on the edges.
		Slowing the songs of the Muscicapidae reveals this fact, and hearing it in the field is an experience not to be missed..

	OW Flycatchers and chats
		The Muscicapidae is a huge family of smallish Old World passerines that includes not only some of the 'flycatchers' of the Old World, but also a large group of 'chats' and allies, of which Gray Bushchat (left) is just one example.
		The Muscicapidae include 22 species of Oenanthe called wheatears, about 30 species in 10 genera called robins (not including even more robin-chats and magpie-robins) and 14 species in four genera that go by the name of redstarts.
		Of course, the Muscicapidae does include the group known as 'Old World Flycatchers;' sometimes the family is restricted to just them (e.g., earlier versions of this web-based family listing put the 'chats' with the thrushes).

	Muscicapidae - 鹟科 - ヒタキ科 - Họ đớp ruồi
		The Muscicapidae is a large family which originally subsumed the thrushes (Turdinae), babblers (Timiliinae), warblers (Sylviinae), and flycatchers (Muscicapinae).
		There has also been a large rearrangement of these two subfamilies whereby the robins, redstarts, chats, and wheatears have been transferred from the Turdinae to the Muscicapinae.
		The distribution of the Muscicapidae in East Asia can be seen at Tzung-Su Ding's Distribution of the MUSCICAPIDAE in East Asia.

		common name for various members of the Old World family Muscicapidae, insectivorous songbirds including the kingbirds, phoebes, and pewees.
		Flycatchers vary in color from drab to brilliant, as in the crested monarch and paradise flycatchers of Asia and Africa.
		Flycatchers are classified in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Aves, order Passeres, families Muscicapidae and Tyrannidae.

		Thrushes belong to the family Muscicapidae which includes some of the finest singers of all birds.
		These birds feed on insects and fruit and are well known for reminding us of spring soon approaching.
		The nest is constructed by the female who lays 3-7 blue eggs, with an occasional clutch of white eggs.

	Muscicapoidea
		Relationships among the five families Sturnidae (starlings), Mimidae (mimic thrushes) Cinclidae (dippers), Turdidae (thrushes), and Muscicapidae (sensu stricto — Old World flycatchers) are also contentious, but a strong case can be made for the topology shown above (Sibley and Ahlquist 1990; Barker et al.
		An alternative arrangement in which Cinclidae is sister to the sturnid-mimid clade is supported only weakly, and in a single analysis, though the relationship between Turdidae and Muscicapidae is also supported by parsimony jackknifing (Ericson and Johansson 2003).
		Voelker and Spellman (2004) show a substantially different topology, in which Muscicapidae is basal, but contradictory nodes again have weak support.

		The taxonomic treatment of this large family has varied significantly in recent years.
		Traditionally it included the small Old World species, like the Nightingale and European Robin in the subfamily Saxicolini, ever so often either that group or the whole family is placed in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae.
		For other species previously in Turdidae, see Muscicapidae and chats.

		Traditionally considered related to the babblers (Timaliidae) but having some characters of drongos (Dicruridae; Austin and Singer 1961), biochemical studes suggested closer relationships to the Muscicapidae.
		In fact, Sibley and Monroe (1990) threw them into the dumping ground those authors called the Muscicapidae (as a subfamily near the monarch-flycatchers).
		Taxonomic relationships of these Asian families remain uncertain and controversial.
