This species which was first obtained from the north of China is closely allied 

 to Nectarinia nipalensis, Hodgson. M. J. Verreaux in his description says : " Mais 

 le caractere qui le distingue de tons les autres, et qui lui est particulier, c'est le 

 blanchatre qui borde les rectrices extemes." Four specimens of N. nipalensis, 

 however, from Darjeeling in the Calcutta Museum have the external rectrices with 

 whitish tips of the very same shade as those of N. dabryi, although not quite so 

 broad. In the female iV. nipalensis the white tips are very marked.
