The Pallas's rosefinch (Carpodacus roseus) is a species of bird in the finch family Fringillidae. It is

found in China, Japan, Kazakhstan, North Korea, South Korea, Mongolia, and Russia. Birds are

occasionally reported from further west and there are records from several European countries,

including Britain, but the cage-bird trade makes the origin of some such birds hard to assess. Its

natural habitats are boreal forests and boreal shrubland.
