Himalayan prinia

The Himalayan prinia ("Prinia crinigera") is a species of bird in the family Cisticolidae. It was formerly lumped in with the Chinese prinia ("P. striata") as the striated prinia.
It is found in the Indian Subcontinent and parts of China, with its range generally following the Himalayas. It is distributed in the countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bhutan, Nepal, and the Yunnan Province in China. Populations in Myanmar, most of China, and Taiwan are now considered to belong to "P. striata" following a 2019 study. Both "P. crinigera" and "P. striata" are sympatric in the Yunnan Province.
There are four known subspecies: "P. c. striatula", which is known from the mountains of Afghanistan and west Pakistan; "P. c. crinigera", which is distributed from north Pakistan to Arunachal Pradesh in northeast India; "P. c. yunnanensis", which is restricted to the northwestern Yunnan Province in China, and "P. c. bangsi" in the southeastern Yunnan Province. "P. c. bangsi" was formerly considered a subspecies of Deignan's prinia (formerly the brown prinia) until the 2019 study.
