Turdidae — Thrushes

White-throated Thrush, Turdus assimilis, is a thrush of Middle America, widespread across its breeding range. It was described by Cabanis in 1851. The species is found in Mexico and Central America, with records also from the south-western United States. It lives mainly in wooded places, though its habitat changes from one part of its range to another and between seasons. In Mexico it occurs in a mix of forest types and plantations, while elsewhere it is associated with humid forest, gallery woodland, canyons, savanna, pastures, coffee plantations, canebrakes and dry tropical forest.
