Does this constructor call have a special name?

Question

Assume you have two classes A and , B has a constructor from A : B(A a).

Assume you have a non overloaded function f that takes an B object as a parameter : void f(B b) If I write f(a) the compiler will automatically call the B constructor from A. What is this called ?
