The Sichuan tit (Poecile weigoldicus) is a species of bird in the tit family Paridae. It is endemic to central China.[1]
This species was formerly treated as a subspecies of the willow tit (Poecile montanus). It was promoted to species status based on a genetic analysis published in 2002.[2][3] It is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.[4]
