It is found in the Lesser Antilles where it breeds on Saba, St. Kitts, Nevis, Montserrat, Guadeloupe, Dominica and St. Vincent. It formerly occurred on St. Eustatius. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, and heavily degraded former forest.
The Brown Trembler is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.
The Brown Trembler (Cinclocerthia ruficauda), one of the endemic Mimidae of the Lesser Antilles, has a conspicuous and frequent habit of trembling its wings, the behavior for which it is named. Trembling consists of a perched bird drooping both wings 1-2 cm, then quickly raising them back to a normal position several times in rapid succession. Each "tremble" takes approximately 1 s. In this study, Brown Tremblers were observed and frequency of trembling was measured in March 1991, on Dominica. More
The Brown Trembler (Cinclocerthia ruficauda) is a species of bird in the Mimidae family. Northern birds from Guadeloupe northwards may represent a separate species (C. tremula) from those on Dominica and St. Vincent. It is found in the Lesser Antilles where it breeds on Saba, St. Kitts, Nevis, Montserrat, Guadeloupe, Dominica and St. Vincent. It formerly occurred on St. Eustatius. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, and heavily degraded former forest. More

This is possibly Brown Trembler, subspecies unknown, in arid scrub, though opinions vary on whether this species truly occurs on St. Lucia. More
