Taxonomy

The species in genus Schoeniparus were until recently placed in the genus Alcippe with other fulvettas. Recent genetic analysis found that genus polyphyletic and Schoeniparus was resurrected for a group of seven species.[1][2][3]

The genus currently contains the following seven species:[1][4]

gollark: Well, I could continue work on MIDNIGHT RUNG.
gollark: I would hope so. One must wonder what else they would end up doing with the helicopters, then.
gollark: Yes, lasering planes is obviously bad, but I'm just saying that it may not be worth having helicopters constantly around (or whatever they're doing) to catch people doing it.
gollark: * probably can, in some edge cases
gollark: Realistically they'll just demand more money and do both.
