The Tsing-ling pika (Ochotona syrinx) is a species of pika endemic to the mountains in Central China.[2] It inhabits mountainous forests and shrublands. It is a poorly known species.
It is a rarely found, one of the six pika species endemic to central China, although the taxonomy of these is in flux, with no true population studies.[3][a] The name "Tsing-ling" derives from an old transliteration of "Qinling", the name of the mountains that it inhabits.
