"<i>Drymodes Brunneopygia</i>, Gould, Scrub-Robin. I
discovered this singular bird in the great Murray Scrub in
South [sc. Southern] Australia, where it was tolerably
abundant. I have never seen it from any other part of the
country, and it is doubtless confined to such portions of
Australia as are clothed with a similar character of
vegetation."

1895. W. O. Legge, `Australasian Association for the
Advancement of Science' (Brisbane), p. 447:

"As regards portions of Gould's English nomenclatures,
such as his general term `Robin' for the genera <i>Petroica,
Paecilodryas</i>, <i>Eopsaltria</i>, it was found that by
retaining the term `Robin' for the best known member of the
group (<i>Petroica</i>), and applying a qualifying noun to
the allied genera, such titles as Tree-robin, Scrub-robin,
and Shrike-robin were easily evolved."
