By plumage and distribution, they can very roughly be divided into 2 groups (probably not reflecting taxonomic relations): One group inhabits central Asia ( personata ), the mountains of southern Asia ( alboides ), central East Asia ( leucopsis ) and the Pacific coast from the southern half of Kamchatka to Japan ( lugens ).
