The brown parrotbill is a parrotbill found in the central and eastern Himalayas. It has earlier been called a brown suthora.
This is a 17–19 cm long grey brown bird with a long tail and a characteristic small yellowish parrot-like bill. A dark stripe runs above the eyes and along the sides of the crown. They move in small groups and will sometimes join mixed species foraging flocks.
It is found in Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, and Nepal.
