The rusty-breasted whistler (Pachycephala fulvotincta), also known as the fulvous-tinted whistler, is a species of bird in the family Pachycephalidae. It is endemic to Indonesia, where it ranges from Java east to Alor and north to the Selayar Islands.

Taxonomy and systematics

[edit]

The rusty-breasted whistler is variably considered as either a subspecies of the widespread Australian golden whistler or treated as a separate species, but strong published evidence in favour of either treatment is limited, and further study is warranted to resolve the complex taxonomic situation.[2] The name 'rusty-breasted whistler' is also used as an alternate name for the rusty whistler.

Subspecies

[edit]

Five subspecies are recognized:[3]

  • P. f. teysmanniBüttikofer, 1893: Originally described as a separate species. Found on Selayar Islands (south of Sulawesi)
  • P. f. everettiHartert, 1896: Originally described as a separate species. Found on Tanahjampea, Kalaotoa and Madu Islands (south of Sulawesi)
  • P. f. javanaHartert, 1928: Found on eastern Java and Bali
  • P. f. fulvotinctaWallace, 1864: Found on western Lesser Sundas
  • P. f. fulviventrisHartert, 1896: Originally described as a separate species. Found on Sumba Island (south-central Lesser Sundas)

Description

[edit]

Compared to other members of the golden whistler group, the rusty-breasted whistler is relatively small, and males have a white throat and a rust-tinged chest, except in the subspecies teysmanni from Selayar Islands where the plumage of the male is female-like.[2]

Distribution and habitat

[edit]

It is the westernmost member of the golden whistler group, being bordered to the east by the black-chinned and yellow-throated whistlers, and to the south by the Australian golden whistler.
