Subspecies
Systematic position unclear, further study needed. Balance of evidence, e.g. voice, singing behaviour, tail-raising habit, flushing behaviour and distinct juvenile plumage, just favours treatment within present family. However, alternative treatment in Timaliidae also tenable on basis of black eyebrow, short curved wing, rounded tail, bare orbital skin and foraging behaviour.
