The whiskered yuhina (Yuhina flavicollis) is a bird species in the white-eye family Zosteropidae. Its range extends across the Himalaya n forests in northern India to northeast Indian states, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and in the east to Indochina including Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam.[2] Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. The whiskered yuhina is sometimes found in mixed hunting parties with other yuhina and fulvetta species,[3] but it has also been reported to not associate with mixed hunting parties in some areas.[4] It is described as one of the commonest yuhinas in the Himalayas, although it is relatively uncommon to rare at low elevations.[2] It prefers relatively undisturbed closed canopy cover.[5] It is one among several other birds hunted by livestock herders in Northeast India.[6]
