Subspecies
No subspecies.

Species sometimes placed in genus Trochalopteron or Strophocincla. Until recently considered conspecific with Streaked Laughingthrush (Trochalopteron lineatum), but distinct in many features, with no intergradation despite close geographical proximity. Also, most vocalizations differ considerably, and playback of recordings has apparently elicited no response.
