Sao Tome Thrush
Turdus olivaceofuscus Hartlaub, 1852
Turdidae — Thrushes
Sao Tome Thrush, Turdus olivaceofuscus, is a thrush in the family Turdidae that breeds on São Tomé in the Gulf of Guinea. It is confined to that island and is linked to moist forest, both in lowland and montane zones. The species was described by Hartlaub in 1852. It was once treated together with the Príncipe thrush, which was regarded as a subspecies until 2010. Its presence is tied to forest habitat, and loss of that habitat affects it.
