The eye-ringed parrotbill, also called the Yunnan parrotbill (Suthora ricketti), is a 10 cm parrotbill endemic to China, breeding in north-west Yunnan. It was formerly considered conspecific with the brown-winged parrotbill, but more recent studies found it to be a distinct species, and its behaviour is described as similar to the vinous-throated parrotbill's.
