The rosy starling is a passerine bird in the starling family, Sturnidae, also known as the rose-coloured starling or rose-coloured pastor. The species was recently placed in its own monotypic genus, "Pastor", and split from "Sturnus". This split is supported by recent studies, though other related species within its new genus are not yet known for certain.
