The brown-chested alethe (Chamaetylas poliocephala) is a species of bird in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae. It has a discontinuous range of presence across the African tropical rainforest.

Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.

Taxonomy

The brown-chested alethe was formally described in 1850 by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte based on a manuscript by Coenraad Temminck. Bonaparte gave the binomial name as Trichophorus (Griniger) and the locality as Africa. The locality has been restricted to the island of Bioko (formally Fernando Po).[1][2] The specific epithet combines the Ancient Greek polios meaning "grey" with -kephalos meaning "-headed".[3] The brown-chested alethe is now one of four species placed in the genus Chamaetylas that was introduced in 1860 by Ferdinand Heine.[4]

Nine subspecies are recognised:[4]

  • C. p. poliocephala (Bonaparte, 1850) – Sierra Leone to Ghana
  • C. p. compsonota (Cassin, 1859) – south Nigeria to southwest Central African Republic, northwest Angola and Bioko
  • C. p. hallae (Traylor, 1961) – west Angola
  • C. p. giloensis (Cunningham-Van Someren & Schifter, 1981) – south Sudan
  • C. p. carruthersi (Ogilvie-Grant, 1906) – southeast Central African Republic, northeast DR Congo, Uganda and west Kenya
  • C. p. akeleyae (Dearborn, 1909) – central Kenya
  • C. p. vandeweghei (Prigogine, 1984) – Rwanda and Burundi
