The Tasman Sea island thrush is an extinct forest bird in the thrush family that was formerly found on Lord Howe Island and Norfolk Island in the Pacific Ocean. It is part of the "island thrush" complex that has been split into 17 species based on a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2023.

The Sahul brush cuckoo, formerly known as the brush cuckoo, is a member of the cuckoo family. It is native to Malesia, New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and northern and eastern Australia. It is a grey-brown bird with a buff breast. Its call is a familiar sound of the Australian and Indonesian bush.
The Sulawesi blue flycatcher is a species of bird in the family Muscicapidae. It is endemic to Indonesia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
The snowy-browed flycatcher is a species of bird in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae.
The Buru friarbird or black-faced friarbird is a species of bird in the family Meliphagidae. It is endemic to the island of Buru in the Maluku Islands, Indonesia.
The Peleng fantail is a fantail endemic to the mountainous areas of Peleng island in Indonesia. It can be distinguished from other species of fantail by the black scaling below its black breast patch, bright white throat, and distinct courtship vocalization. It was described in 2020 alongside 9 other new species and subspecies of birds endemic to islands in Wallacea. All of them were discovered in surveys during 2009 and 2013, the largest discovery of its kind in over a century. It may be potentially threatened by deforestation and climate change-fueled wildfires.

It was first described in 2020 and was named after Prof Emil Salim, a former Minister of Environment of the Republic of Indonesia and eminent environmentalist. It is found in the undisturbed montane forest on Taliabu Island in Indonesia from 700m up to probably the highest elevations above 1,400m. The species may also occur on the large neighboring Mangole Island.
The Peleng leaf warbler is a species of Old World warbler in the family Phylloscopidae. It was first described in 2020.

The Samoan island thrush is a species of passerine bird in the thrush family Turdidae. It is endemic to the Samoan Islands, which includes Samoa and American Samoa. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the island thrush, but in 2024 the island thrush complex was split into 17 different species by the IOC and Clements checklist based on morphological and phylogenic differences.
Papuan island thrush is a species of passerine in the family Turdidae. It is endemic to New Guinea and Goodenough Island in the countries of Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. It was formerly considered to be a number of subspecies of Island thrush until 2024 when it was classified as a distinct species by the IOC and Clements checklist.

Prior to 2024, the Sundaic island thrush was considered to be eight separate subspecies of the island thrush. It has the largest distribution in the island thrush complex, ranging from northern Sumatra south to Java, with a disjunct population in northern Borneo.
