The Annam limestone babbler, also known as the khướu đá hoa in Vietnamese, is a species of bird in the family Pellorneidae. It is native to the limestone hills of northern Indochina. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the variable limestone babbler but a 2020 study recovered it as a distinct species. Source: Wikipedia
