The bird family Petroicidae includes roughly 45 species in about 15 genera. All are endemic to Australasia: Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and numerous Pacific Islands as far east as Samoa. For want of an accurate common name, the family is often called the "Australasian robins". Within the family the species are known not only as robins but as scrub-robins and flycatchers. They are, however, only distantly related to the Old World family Muscicapidae (to which other species with such names belong) and the Monarch Flycatchers (Monarchidae). I have included pictures of some of the various types of robin down under:
