Eaglenest, eastern Himalayas, early February (Yann Muzika) (a); Eaglenest, late January (Vijay Cavale) (b); Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, India, mid June (Sachin Rai; same individual as in Fig. 9 and AV19225) (c); Niubei Shan, Sichuan, China, mid June (Chao Zhao; same individual as in Figs. 5, 9, IOZ 20890 and AV19499) (d); Kangding, Sichuan, China, early April (Huaming Zhou) (e); Dali, Yunnan, China, early March (John and Jemi Holmes) (f); Eaglenest, early March (Adesh Shivkar) (g). Note that as no DNA data are available for e and f, one or both could theoretically represent the “Yunnan Thrush”, which is only known from Yunnan, and which is not known to differ in plumage from Alpine Thrush
