Benson's Rock-thrush ("Monticola sharpei bensoni") is a songbird in the family Muscicapidae, formerly placed in the Turdidae together with the other chats. Often considered a distinct species, it is nowadays usually included in the Forest Rock-thrush ("M. sharpei") as a subspecies; e.g. BirdLife International revised its status to subspecies in 2008 [BLI (2008a,b)] .

This bird is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss; when it was still considered a good species, it was classified as Near threatened by the IUCN [BLI (2004)] .
