Yellow-throated Laughingthrush (Pterorhinus galbanus)
About the Yellow-throated Laughingthrush
The yellow-throated laughingthrush (Pterorhinus galbanus) is a species of bird in the family Leiothrichidae. It is found in grassy areas with bushes and trees, scrub and forest in the Patkai mountain range. Until recently, it included the blue-crowned laughingthrush as a subspecies, but unlike that species the crown of the yellow-throated laughingthrush is pale grey (not bluish). The yellow-throated laughingthrush was formerly placed in the genus Garrulax but following the publication of a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic study in 2018, it was moved to the resurrected genus Pterorhinus.
