(Muscicapidae; Ϯ Brown-chested Alethe C. poliocephala compsonota) Gr. χαμαι khamai on the ground; τυλας tulas, τυλαδος tulados thrush; "A plump, upright, long-legged bird of the forest floor and low undergrowth" (Keith et al. (eds.) 1992); "Die Annahme einer ächten Geocichla in Africa scheint uns doch kaum zulässig, obgleich Cassin dieselbe mit Geocichla interpres Bp. (Turdus interpres Temm. Pl. col. 458) von den Sunda-Inseln vergleicht, wir möchlen desshalb für diese schöne Art lieber den Namen Chamaetylas compsonota (von χαμαι = humi und τυλας = turdus) vorschlagen." (Heine 1860); "Chamaetylas Heine, 1859, Journ. f. Orn., 7, p. 425. Type, by monotypy, Geocichla compsonota Cassin" (Ripley in Peters, 1964, X, p. 61).
