The white-whiskered laughingthrush[1][2] or Formosan laughing thrush[3] (Trochalopteron morrisonianum) is a species of bird in the family Leiothrichidae.

[2] The species occurs at elevations between 1,475 and 3,300 m (4,839 and 10,827 ft) above sea level,[1] but typically above 2000 m, in tall grass, forest undergrowth, thickets, and forest edge scrub.

[2] In the Yushan National Park, it was more abundant in mixed coniferous forest than in grassland, pine woodland, or spruce forest; along with Taiwan fulvetta (Fulvetta formosana) and Taiwan yuhina (Yuhina brunneiceps), it was a dominant species in that habitat.

[5] White-whiskered laughingthrush is a somewhat common species in Taiwan, with an estimated population size between 10,000 and 100,000 breeding pairs.

Although its population is believed to be decreasing because of habitat destruction and fragmentation, it is not considered a vulnerable species.
