Subspecies
No subspecies.

Often treated as conspecific with Rufous-throated Thrush (Turdus ruficollis). Taxonomic separation based on several very different phenotypic characters and considerable vocal differences, but the two intergrade over wide area. Further study is required.

Proposed subspecies vogulorum (from Ural Mts) considered unwarranted, possibly representing clinal variation.
