This species which was first obtained from the north of China is closely allied
to Nectarinianvpalensis, Hodgson. M. J . Verreaux in his description says : “ Mais
le caractère qui le distingue de tous les autres, et qui lui est particulier, c’est le
blanchâtre qui borde les rectrices externes.” Four specimens of N. nvpalensis,
however, from Darjeeling in the Calcutta Museum have the external rectrices with
whitish tips of the very same shade as those of N. dabryi, although not quite so
broad. In the female N. nvpalensis the white tips are very marked.
