The black-throated accentor (Prunella atrogularis) is a small passerine bird found across temperate and subarctic Asia. It is migratory, wintering in India and other parts of southern Asia. It is a rare vagrant in western Europe. The black-throated accentor builds a neat nest low in spruce thickets, laying 3-5 unspotted blue eggs. It winters in scrub or cultivation. Sexes are similar, but winter birds and juveniles are less contrasted. In particular, the dark throat may be almost absent in young birds. The call is a fine ti-ti-ti, and the song is similar to the dunnock's pleasant twittering.
