Dinopium shorii (Himalayan Goldenback)

Wikipedia Abstract

The Himalayan flameback (Dinopium shorii), also known as the Himalayan goldenback, is a species of bird in the Picidae family. At the moment very little is known of this species and more fieldwork is required. The Himaylayan flameback is not threatened but it is suspected that deforestation could severely affect the species population.
