The pygmy bushtit (Aegithalos exilis) is a species of bird in the bushtit family Aegithalidae.[2] The species was once placed, along with the rest of its family, with the true tits, Paridae.[3]
It is endemic to Indonesia, where it occurs only on the island of Java. On Java it is restricted to montane forests and plantations above 1,000 m (3,300 ft) and occasionally down to 830 m (2,720 ft) in the west of the island. It frequents conifer forest and other open forest types, and is often encountered on the forest edge.[3]
The pygmy bushtit is the smallest member of its family, and the smallest passerine. It is 8.5 to 8.7 cm (3.3–3.4 in) in length.
The pygmy bushtit was formerly placed in its own monotypic genus Psaltria. It was moved to the current genus Aegithalos based on the results of a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2016.[4][5]
