Description

The orange-breasted laughingthrush (Garrulax annamensis) is a passerine bird in the family Leiothrichidae. Until recently it was regarded as a subspecies of the spot-breasted laughingthrush (S. merulina) but has now been split as a separate species. The two have traditionally been placed in the genus Garrulax. It is a medium-sized bird with a strong bill and legs and a fairly long tail. It is 24–25 cm long with a bill length of 25–27 mm, a wing length of 83–92 mm and a tail length of 88–100 mm. It is mostly plain brown apart from an orange stripe over the eye, a black throat and an orange breast with black streaks. It has a loud, melodious song. The spot-breasted laughingthrush is similar but has a pale throat and breast with dark spots and a pale stripe above the eye. It is endemic to Vietnam where it occurs in the Da Lat Plateau in southern Annam. It inhabits montane forest between 915 and 1510 m above sea-level and can survive in degraded habitats such as secondary forest and cultivated land close to forested areas. It is most often seen in pairs. Although it only has a small range, it appears to be tolerant of habitat degradation and is classed as Least Concern by BirdLife International.

Feeding Habits
Orange-breasted Laughingthrush's diet is unspecified, but it forages on or near the ground, alone, in pairs, or groups. Its shy and elusive behavior suggests a preference for a hidden or secure feeding ground.
Habitat
The habitat of orange-breasted Laughingthrush typically includes the undergrowth and edges of broadleaf evergreen forests, clumps of bamboo, and areas of dense secondary growth and scrub. These birds are also found in densely overgrown abandoned cultivation patches and treefall gaps within closed-canopy evergreen forests. Orange-breasted Laughingthrush prefers habitats characterized by rich vegetation and a mix of growth stages, which provide ample cover and foraging opportunities.
