Garrulax formosus The red-winged laughingthrush (Trochalopteron formosum) is a bird species in the family Leiothrichidae.

It is found in south-west China (Sichuan, Yunnan and Guangxi provinces) and north-west Vietnam.

It inhabits forest, secondary growth, scrub and bamboo from 900 to 3000 metres above sea level.

It is an elusive bird which travels in pairs or small groups in dense cover near the forest floor.

Ten individuals of the species were imported to the Isle of Man in 1990 and held in captivity at the Curraghs Wildlife Park.
