The gray thrasher is a medium-sized passerine bird belonging to the family Mimidae like the other thrashers. It is endemic to the Baja California peninsula in Mexico where it occurs from the tip of the peninsula north to 31°N on the west coast and 29°N on the east coast. It inhabits desert scrubland.

It is about 25 cm long. It is gray-brown above while the underparts are white with arrow-shaped black spots. The outer tail-feathers have white tips.
