Spotted
The Ngoc Linh Laughingthrush is a rare and recently described species, endemic to the Ngoc Linh mountain in central Vietnam. It is a cryptic babbler, often difficult to observe due to its secretive nature and dense habitat.
Where to spot
Endemic to Ngoc Linh mountain in Kon Tum Province, central Vietnam. Inhabits dense montane evergreen forests and bamboo thickets at very high elevations.
How to spot
Listen for its distinctive, rather quiet, hooting or whistling calls, often given from dense cover. Look for subtle movements in the undergrowth. Its plain, somewhat mottled plumage offers good camouflage, making it hard to spot.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active in the early morning. Due to its rarity and restricted habitat, observation requires dedicated effort.
This species was first discovered in 1998, highlighting the ongoing biological discoveries in remote and biodiverse regions like the Annamite mountains.
