Pittidae

Pittidae, the pittas, sometimes called jewel-thrushes, is a family of 46 species of ground-dwelling passerine birds in three genera, Erythropitta, Hydrornis and Pitta. They are found across Asia, Australasia and Africa, with their greatest diversity in Southeast Asia. Pittas are medium-sized, 15 to 25 centimeters long, with stocky bodies, strong longish legs, long feet, very short tails and stout, slightly decurved bills. Many species carry brightly colored plumage despite being highly secretive, terrestrial forest birds that forage on the ground for earthworms, snails, insects and other invertebrates.
