2 Three other new species in 2013 The Cambodian tailorbird, which is scientifically known as Orthotomus chaktomuk, was found in Phnom Penh, the capital city of Cambodia.

4 Roughly the same size as a wren, with white cheeks and a cinnamon cap, the bird was named the Cambodian tailorbird by the team that documented the discovery.
