Brachypteryx
The genus Brachypteryx contains four species known as shortwings. They are colourful medium-sized mostly insectivorous birds. Opinion is divided as to whether they belong in the thrush family Turdidae, or the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae. Whilst white-browed and rusty-bellied shortwing show strong sexual plumage dimorphism, the other two have similar plumage between sexes. All species are southeast Asian.
