The rusty-breasted wheatear (Oenanthe frenata) is a species of bird in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae that is found in montane Eritrea and Ethiopia.
The rusty-breasted wheatear was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the red-breasted wheatear(Oenanthe bottae) which is now renamed the buff-breasted wheatear.[2][3]
