The '''Laughingthrushes''' are the genus '''''Garrulax''''' of the [[Leiothrichidae]] family of [[passerine]] [[bird]]s. They primarily occur in tropical [[Asia]]. |
|||
These are rangy, medium-sized landbirds. These birds have strong legs and are quite terrestrial. This group is not strongly [[bird migration|migratory]], and most [[species]] have short rounded wings, and a weak flight. |
|||
A few, like the [[Streaked Laughingthrush]] occur in fairly open habitats, but most are jungle species, difficult to observe in the dense vegetation they prefer. |
|||
These are noisy birds, and the characteristic laughing calls are often the best indication that these birds are present. They frequently occur in groups of up to a dozen, and the rainforest species like the [[Ashy-headed Laughingthrush]] often occur in the mixed feeding flocks typical of tropical Asian jungle. |
|||
== Systematics == |
|||
Most [[molecular phylogeny]] studies, for example, used only the [[White-crested Laughingthrush]] as an "example" of this "genus", because specimens were readily available. Morphological studies, on the other hand, had usually more material at their disposal, but these too were generally conducted under a false assumption of monophyly. A 2003 study,<ref>Cibois (2003)</ref> analyzing [[mtDNA]] [[cytochrome b|cytochrome ''b'']] and [[12S rRNA|12S]]/[[MT-RNR2|16S rRNA]] data of a number of laughingthrushes, did establish however that there is no such thing as a "representative" laughingthrush. Consequently most of the work regarding the evolution of this assemblage needs to be evaluated anew and if necessary even redone. Indeed, the taxon ''Garrulax'' would need to be restricted to the [[type species]] ([[Rufous-fronted Laughingthrush]]) and its closest relatives, but the species generally considered the most likely candidates have not been comprehensively studied in recent times.<ref>Cibois (2003), Pasquet ''et al.'' (2006)</ref> |
|||
=== Species list === |
|||
The list below uses the treatment of the laughingthrushes by ''[[Birds of South Asia. The Ripley Guide|Birds of South Asia]]''<ref>Rasmussen & Anderton (2005)</ref> and the ''[[Handbook of Birds of the World]]''<ref>Collar & Robson (2007)</ref> as a baseline, acknowledging the polyphyly of ''Garrulax'' and attempting to reorganise it into [[monophyletic]] genera. |
|||
This list is by no means the last word on the subject though, and it is very likely that some of the new groups will be revised, expanded or split as more species are studied in the future; additional laughingthrushes are presently elevated to species status and even hitherto unknown taxa are discovered at a rate of about 1-2 per year. Some proposed small or [[monotypic]] genera on the other hand might ultimately be merged with others for convenience if they turn out to be [[sister taxa]]. |
