The Hill Mynah, also called the Common Hill Mynah (also spelled Myna) is native mainly to Southeast Asia although 1 of the 6 subspecies is native to northeast India.
Each subspecies has a different shape to the wattle on the neck and sometimes a different shade to wattle and bill.
There are 3 other "Gracula" (Hill Mynah) species, also similar except for neck wattle shape.
Above, with pale yellow, joined-up wattle: Eastern Hill Mynah, G. r. intermedia,
native to the Himalayas through to Burma/Indochina (including southwest China).
The Palawan Hill Mynah, above and top row, G. r. palawanensis is native to Palawan, Indonesia.

in the right light.
