St. Lucia Thrasher
Ramphocinclus sanctaeluciae Cory, 1887
Mimidae — Mockingbirds, Thrashers
St. Lucia Thrasher, Ramphocinclus sanctaeluciae, is a passerine of the Mimidae family that breeds on St. Lucia in North America. It was first described by Cory in 1887. The bird is confined to the island and lives in dense coastal scrub forest, especially where there is leaf litter and very little ground cover. It is marked by dark brown upperparts and pale white underparts, and can be told from the Martinique thrasher by its brown back and larger size. It is also known locally as the gorge blanc.
