Indian robin (Copsychus fulicatus) is a species of passarine bird in the family Muscicapidae. It is widespread in the Indian subcontinent. Sexually dimorphic in plumage, males are mainly black with a white shoulder patch or stripe. Northern populations have the upper plumage brownish, while the southern populations are black above. Males have chestnut undertail coverts and these are visible as the bird usually holds the tail raised upright. The females are brownish above, have no white shoulder stripe and are greyish below, with the vent a paler shade of chestnut than the males. Their long tail is usually held up and the chestnut undertail coverts and dark body make them easily distinguishable.
