The eastern crested berrypecker[2][3] (Paramythia montium) is a species of bird in the family Paramythiidae. It is commonly found in the high montane forests and shrublands of New Guinea.[4]
There are two subspecies, Paramythia montium montium and Paramythia montium brevicauda. The former inhabits the eastern portion of the New Guinea Highlands while the latter can be found in the Huon Peninsula. The western crested berrypecker (P. olivacea) was formerly considered conspecific but was split from it in 2021.[3]
