Rufous-vented Tit (Periparus rubidiventris)
About the Rufous-vented Tit
The rufous-vented tit (Periparus rubidiventris) is an Asian songbird species in the tit and chickadee family (Paridae). Some of its subspecies were formerly assigned to its western relative the rufous-naped tit (P. rufonuchalis), or these two were considered entirely conspecific. The tit was formerly placed in the genus Parus. The four subspecies are: Periparus rubidiventris rubidiventris – S rim of Himalayas from NW to NE India and N Nepal. Periparus rubidiventris beavani (Jerdon, 1863) – Beavan's rufous-vented tit – S rim of Himalayas in NE India and Bhutan. Periparus rubidiventris whistleri – SE rim of Himalayas in SW China and adjacent N Myanmar and extreme NE India. Sometimes included in beavani. Periparus rubidiventris saramatii – Very localised in NW Myanmar.
