Spotted laughingthrush (Ianthocincla ocellata) in undergrowth of a mixed cold temperate Himalayan Forest, about 2250 meters above sea level, in Sarmoli Village, Munsiari, District Pithoragarh, Uttarakhand.

The spotted laughingthrush was at one time placed in the genus Garrulax but following the publication of a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic study in 2018, it was moved to the resurrected genus Ianthocincla.[2][3]
