🐦Gray catbird

Dumetella carolinensis (Linnaeus, 1766)

O pássaro-gato-cinzento (Dumetella carolinensis) é uma ave de médio porte da América do Norte e da América Central, fazendo parte da ordem dos Passeriformes e da família Mimidae. É o único membro do gênero Dumetella. Como o Melanoptila glabrirostris, está entre as linhagens basais da família Mimidae, provavelmente um parente mais próximo do grupo de sabiás e tremedores do Caribe do que dos sabiás do gênero Toxostoma.
