Hemitesia pallidipes (Blanford, 1872)

Pale-footed Bush Warbler, Hemitesia pallidipes, is a passerine in the Cettiidae family and breeds widely across the Oriental Region. It is found across southern Asia, from the Himalayan belt west of Dehradun through the foothills of Nepal to north-eastern India, and also in Myanmar, Laos, northern Vietnam and southern China. It is usually linked with Themeda grasslands, though its habitat varies locally. In Thailand it uses grassland and scrub up to 1,800 m, while in China it occurs in woodland up to 1,525 m. It was described by Blanford in 1872.
