White-speckled Laughingthrush (Ianthocincla bieti)
About the White-speckled Laughingthrush
The white-speckled laughingthrush (Ianthocincla bieti), also known as Biet's Laughingthrush, is a species of passerine bird in the family Leiothrichidae. It is endemic to China. Its natural habitat is temperate forests. It is threatened by habitat loss. The white-speckled laughingthrush was at one time placed in the genus Garrulax but following the publication of a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic study in 2018, it was moved to the resurrected genus Ianthocincla. The specific name commemorates the French missionary to China Félix Biet.
