Certhia manipurensis, Allan Octavian Hume, 1881
(In Thai: นกเปลือกไม้)
Hume's treecreeper (Certhia manipurensis) was earlier included within the brown-throated treecreeper complex and identified as a separate species on the basis of their distinctive calls. This species in the treecreeper family is found in Assam, Myanmar, Shan Mountains, Laos and the Dalat Plateau.
This form has a rich cinnamon throat and breast with support for their status coming from nd molecular evidence and calls.
The name commemorates the British naturalist Allan Octavian Hume who worked in India.
