Randia (bird)
Rand's warbler (''Randia pseudozosterops'') is a species in the family Bernieridae. It is found only in Madagascar, where it is restricted to the island's eastern rainforests. It is grey above and unmarked pale below, with a strong pale supercilium. The bill is strong and slightly decurved, with some individuals possessing a pale orange lower mandible. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, where it is fairly common up to 1200 m. It frequently joins mixed-species flocks, where it often feeds along horizontal or angled branches. It also tends to sing for long periods from the canopy. While not considered threatened, its population is inferred to be decreasing due to widespread deforestation across its range. A 2019 phylogenetic study found Rand's warbler to be the sister species In phylogenetics, a sister group or sister taxon, also called an adelphotaxon, comprises the closest relative(s) of another given unit in an evolutionary tree.

Randia (plant)
''Randia'', commonly known as indigoberry, is a mostly Neotropical realm, Neotropical genus of shrubs or small trees in the Rubiaceae. Plants of the World Online lists a total of 112 accepted species in the genus. Several Australian species have been reassigned to the genus ''Atractocarpus''. These include the garden plants ''Atractocarpus chartaceus'' and ''Atractocarpus fitzalanii, A. fitzalanii''. Carl Linnaeus retained the name ''Randia'', applied by Houston to commemorate Isaac Rand. Species of this genus are generally dioecious, with separate male and female plants, although exceptions exist. They are trees, shrubs, and lianas, and may be deciduous or evergreen.
