Other common names: Black-and-blue Cochoa, Malaysian Cochoa

Taxonomy: Turdus azureus Temminck, 1824, Java.
Possibly more appropriately placed in a monotypic genus on account of its smaller size and different pattern compared with current congeners. Has been thought to form a superspecies with C. beccarii, and has often been considered conspecific, but differs significantly in size and plumage. Monotypic.

Distribution: W & C Java.
