Proposed subspecies orientis (from eastern Java) based on longer wing, but not considered distinct from rubecula; putative subspecies amadoni (from Chanda, in central India) appears indistinguishable from cyanota.

• citrina (Latham, 1790)   -  Himalayas east to north-eastern India and western and northern Myanmar. Non-breeding southern India and Sri Lanka.
• cyanota (Jardine & Selby, 1828)   -  Central and southern India.
• gibsonhilli (Deignan, 1950)   -  Central and south-eastern Myanmar, south-western Thailand. Non-breeding Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore.
• innotata Blyth, 1846   -  Southern China (southern Yunnan), eastern Myanmar, northern and south-eastern Thailand, north-western and southern Indochina. Non-breeding Peninsular Malaysia.
• melli (Stresemann, 1923)   -  Southern China.
• courtoisi (Hartert, 1919)   -  Anhui (eastern China).
• aurimacula (Hartert, 1910)   -  Central Indochina and Hainan I.
• andamanensis Walden, 1874   -  Andaman Is.
• albogularis Blyth, 1847   -  Nicobar Is.
