Comments

The Blue Rock Thrush is no longer considered a thrush, i.e.a member of the Turdidae family, but rather an old world Flycatcher and a member of the Muscicapidae family.

Le Merle bleu n'est plus considéré comme membre de la famille des Grives (Turdidae), mais comme un Gobe-mouchen c'est à dire comme un membre de la famille des Muscicapidae.
