The white-fronted black chat (Oenanthe albifrons) is a species of passerine bird in the family Muscicapidae. It is native to the Sudan (region). Its natural habitats are moist savanna and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland.
The white-fronted black chat was formerly included in the genus Myrmecocichla. Molecular phylogenetic studies published in 2010 and 2012 found that the species was phylogenetically nested within the genus Oenanthe.[2][3] As part of a reorganization of the chat species to create monophyletic genera, the white-fronted black chat was moved to the genus Oenanthe.[4]
