Yellow-throated Nightingale-Thrush (Catharus dryas)
About the Yellow-throated Nightingale-Thrush
The yellow-throated nightingale-thrush or Gould's nightingale-thrush (Catharus dryas) is a species of bird in the family Turdidae, the thrushes and allies. It is found from Mexico to Nicaragua. The yellow-throated nightingale-thrush was originally described in 1855 as Malacochicla dryas. The two subspecies of what is now the speckled nightingale-thrush (Catharus maculatus), also called Sclater's nightingale-thrush, were long treated as subspecies of the reassigned Catharus dryas. Together they were called the spotted nightingale-thrush. Following a study of the species' vocalizations published in 2017, taxonomic systems began separating them.
