The Tagula shrikethrush (Colluricincla discolor) is a species of bird in the family Pachycephalidae.
Taxonomy and systematics
This species was formerly considered a conspecific member of the little shrikethrush complex. Genetic investigations of New Guinea populations of the little shrikethrush indicate high levels of genetic divergence, suggesting it comprised more than one species.{{cite journal|author1=Deiner, Kristy |author2=Lemmon, Alan R. |author3=Mack, Andrew L. |author4=Fleischer, Robert C. |author5=Dumbacher, John P. |date=2011|title=A Passerine Bird's Evolution Corroborates the Geologic History of the Island of New Guinea|journal=PLOS ONE|volume=6|issue=5|page=e19479|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0019479 |pmid=21573115 |pmc=3089620 |bibcode=2011PLoSO...619479D |doi-access=free }}
