Crimson-browed Finch

The crimson-browed finch is a large true finch with a large, short bill. The male has a crimson-red head and throat, and the female a yellow head and throat. The species name subhimachalus combines the Latin sub, beneath, and the Hindi himachal, snow; it was formerly placed in the genus Pinicola but was moved to the rosefinch genus Carpodacus on the results of phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA (Wikipedia, general species account).
