The Amber Mountain Rock-thrush (Monticola erythronotus) is a songbird in the family Muscicapidae, formerly placed in the Turdidae together with the other chats. It was for long included in the Forest Rock Thrush (M. sharpei) as a subspecies, but it is usually considered a separate species nowadays.

It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
