Carp's tit (Melaniparus carpi) or Carp's black tit, is a species of bird in the family Paridae.[2] Some authors consider it a subspecies of the black tit. It is found throughout the Namibian savanna woodlands and the southern Angolan mopane woodlands.
Its name commemorates olympic sailor and ornithologist Berend Carp (1901-1966).
Carp's tit was formerly one of the many species in the genus Parus but was moved to Melaniparus after a molecular phylogenetic analysis published in 2013 showed that the members of the new genus formed a distinct clade.[3][4]
