The Wallacean island thrush (Turdus schlegelii), also known as the Sulawesi island thrush,[1] is a species of passerine in the family Turdidae. It is found in Indonesia and Timor-Leste. It was formerly considered to be multiple subspecies of the island thrush, but was classified as a distinct species in 2024 by the IOC and Clements checklist based on morphological and phylogenic evidence.[2][3]
