General

Information is from dictionaries and other sources. Comments and corrections welcome. All Malaysian and Indonesian names in the process of conversion into modernised spelling only.

Hemipus, Tephrodornis (earlier classed with the Campephagidae) and Philentoma (earlier classed with the Monarchidae) have recently been added to the Vangidae, a family of shrike-like birds centred on Africa and Madagascar. All three genera are represented in West Malaysia/Singapore. Names are ornithological in nature.

Malaysian names for the Vangidae reflect earlier family affiliations:

1. The genera Hemipus (flycatcher-shrikes) and Tephrodornis (woodshrikes) are called Burung Rembah, glossed here as 'flycatchershrike'. Within the Campephagidae, the family to which they earlier belonged, the name was shared with the Lalage trillers.

2. Philentoma is called a Burung Sambar 'snatcher (bird)', the conventional Malaysian ornithological equivalent of 'flycatcher'. Other birds named Burung Sambar include the muscicapid flycatchers (Muscicapidae), monarch flycatchers (Monarchidae), canary-flycatchers (Stenostiridae), fantails (Rhipiduridae), and whistlers (Pachycephalidae).

Indonesian names

The Indonesian nomenclature, like the Malaysian, reveals the shape of earlier family affiliations, but unlike the Malaysian, the names used are found only in this family.

1. Burung Jingjing is used for the genera Hemipus and Tephrodornis and no others.

2. Philentoma uses the scientific name Philentoma, which is also found nowhere else.

นกจับแมลง nók càp-ma-laeeŋ 'insect-catcher (bird)' is used for most kinds of birds which were called "flycatcher" in English at the time these names were assigned. In addition to Philentoma, these include all genera in the Muscicapinae (except Niltava); and Hypothymis monarch flycatchers (Monarchidae).
