It is found in China, Japan, Kazakhstan, North Korea, South Korea, and Russia. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, and temperate grassland.
It is a very rare vagrant to Europe, but like several related Asiatic rosefinches is reasonably frequent in the cage-bird trade so many records have been considered to relate to escapes.
Taxonomy
The long-tailed rosefinch was formerly placed in the genus Uragus but was moved to Carpodacus based on the results of phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences.[2][3]

gollark: ```pythonimport sysprint(sys.argv[0])```
gollark: Now to figure out how to do quines.
