High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Rufous-breasted, Black-chinned or Nilgiri Laughingthrush, Trochalopteron cachinnans, is a species of Laughingthrush endemic to Peninsular India. Recent treatments move this from the genus Garrulax to the older genus Trochalopteron and treat the former taxa T. jerdoni jerdoni (Banasore Laughingthrush) and T. cachinnans cachinnans as two races of a single species, which is given the new common name of Black-chinned Laughingthrush. The race jerdoni is restricted to the Brahmagiri areas of Coorg and Wayanad, while the nominate race cachinnans is found in the Nilgiri hills. The race jerdoni has a grey breast with faint streaks. The two races are found north of the Palghat gap. Interestingly Jerdon had noted that his T. jerdoni had a close affinity with the Nilgiri race well before the 2005 work by P C Rasmuseen.
