- Erithacus komadori
Identification
Distribution
Japan, restricted to the Ryūkyū Islands.
Taxonomy
Although placed in Erithacus recent genetic studies have shown that east Asian Erithacus Robins are embedded in Luscinia, itself a paraphyletic grouping. Sangster, G. Alstrom, P. Forsmark, A. Olsson, U. ( 2010 ) 'Multi-locus phylogenetic analysis of Old World chats and flycatchers reveals extensive paraphyly at family, subfamily and genus level ( Aves : Muscicapidae )', Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 57, 380-392 suggests splitting Luscinia s.l. to Luscinia s.s., Larvivora ( which would contain the east Asian species ), Calliope and Tarsiger.
Habitat
Dense undergrowth in damp areas in forests. Nests in crevices or among roots of trees. Found at 100-600 meters above sea-level. Source: Birdlife International.
