Campina Thrush (Turdus arthuri)
About the Campina Thrush
The campina thrush (Turdus arthuri) is a species of bird in the family Turdidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Guyana, Suriname, and Venezuela. The campina thrush was originally described as Planesticus arthuri by Charles Chubb in 1914 from a specimen taken near the Abary River in British Guiana (modern day Guyana). Chub gave it the specific epithet arthuri to honor the son of F. V. McConnell: the senior McConnell had collected the type specimen. Following a 1931 publication it was reassigned as a subspecies of the black-billed thrush (T. ignobilis). Following molecular phylogenetics studies published in the 2010s, taxonomic systems recognized it again as a full species. The campina thrush is monotypic.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 15 recordings for this species: 4 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
