Pallas's rosefinch (Carpodacus roseus) is a species of bird in the finch family Fringillidae. It is found in China , Japan , Kazakhstan, Korea, Mongolia, and Russia . Birds are occasionally reported from further west and there are records from several European regions, including Britain, but the cage-bird trade makes the origin of some such birds hard to assess. Its natural habitats are boreal forests and boreal shrubland.

Description

Pallas's rosefinch is around 16–17.5 cm in length.[2] It is a medium-sized to large slender rosefinch with a long notched tail.
