Cyornis is a genus of birds in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae most of which are native to Southeast Asia.
==Taxonomy== The genus Cyornis was introduced by the English zoologist Edward Blyth in 1843. He listed three species in the genus but did not specify which he considered to be the type species. The type was subsequently designated by George Gray in 1855 as Phoenicura rubeculoides Vigors, 1831, the blue-throated blue flycatcher. The genus name combines the Ancient Greek kuanos meaning "dark-blue" with ornis meaning "bird".
