Machlolophus is a genus of birds in the tit family. The species were formerly placed with many others in the genus Parus but were moved to Machlolophus based on a molecular phylogenetic analysis published in 2013 that showed that the members formed a distinct clade.[1]
The name Machlolophus was introduced by the German ornithologist Jean Cabanis in 1850.[2] The word is derived from the classical Greek makhlos meaning luxuriant and lophos meaning crest.[3]
The following species, all from Asia, have been placed in the genus:[4]
- White-naped tit, Machlolophus nuchalis
- Yellow tit, Machlolophus holsti
- Himalayan black-lored tit, Machlolophus xanthogenys
- Indian black-lored tit, Machlolophus aplonotus
- Yellow-cheeked tit, Machlolophus spilonotus
