Carpodacus sipahi
Habitat
Temperate forest
It is resident in the Himalaya, but many birds winter to the immediate south, and its natural habitat is temperate forest (Wikipedia, general species account).
It was formerly placed in the monotypic genus Haematospiza but was moved to the rosefinch genus Carpodacus based on molecular phylogenetic studies. The cached account gives no measurements or breeding information (Wikipedia, general species account).
