The new geographical distribution of L. tigrinus in the Indian subcontinent, specifically in Bhutan, occurring at an elevation greater than 3,000 m is beyond the elevational records of the species in Southeast Asia. This range extension of the Tiger shrike at vast spatial scales, from East Asia to the Eastern Himalayan region of South Asia, provides new scientific insights. %> http://jad.lu.ac.ir/article-1-220-en.pdf %P 12-14 %& 12 %! %9 Short Communication %L A-10-241-1 %+ Phibsoo Wildlife Sanctuary, Department of Forest and Park Services, Postal box No. 31002, Sarpang, Bhutan %G eng %@ 2676-685X %[ 2022
