4. Parus monticolus View in CoL

Other subspecies on Formosa and the Da Lat Plateau (S Vietnam). A serious test should be made to determine whether P. monticolus View in CoL and P. nuchalis View in CoL , India, constitute a superspecies.

P. monticolus monticolus VIGORS, 1831 [loc. typ. restr. Simla]; P. monticolus yunnanensis LA TOUCHE, 1922 [Milati, SE Yunnan].

The population group: P 7 monticolus , yunnanensis; Himalayas, W China, Taiwan. — Fig. Quinn: Plate 29: 87 a, b; monticolus .

* Coloration similar to P2, but two wing bands and transversely limited white on the inner vanes of R4–6, see Eck,1980c: 388, Fig. 3. Colour intensity increases from west to east. — Relatively short tail, TWI: x = 79.9 % ± 2.38 (n=9).

[Subgenus Parus also includes the Indian P. nuchalis, Indomalayan Great Tits and Afrotropical taxa.]
