Myiomela is a genus of bird in the family Muscicapidae. Some members have sometimes been included in the genus Cinclidium and the phylogeny has not been resolved completely.[2][3]
The genus currently includes three species:[4][5]
- White-tailed robin (Myiomela leucura)
- Javan blue robin (Myiomela diana)
- Sumatran blue robin (Myiomela sumatrana)
Species from southern India that were tentatively placed in this genus are now treated in the genus Sholicola.[6]
