==Habitat== Their typical habitat is mountainous regions in an area far above the [[Tree line|tree-line]], but below the [[Snow line|snow-line]]. The [[Alpine accentor]] has been observed at nearly {{cvt|8,000|m|ft|abbr=on}} altitude in the [[Himalaya]] and the [[Altai accentor|Altai]] and [[Robin accentor|Robin]] accentors at {{cvt|5,500|m|ft|abbr=on}};<ref name=hbw/> however, most accentors breed in scrub vegetation at lower levels. Most species are [[bird migration|altitudinal migrants]], descending to lower altitudes to spend the winter, but some are long-distance migrants, most notably the [[Siberian accentor]], which migrates 3,000β5,000 km from northern Siberia to China and Korea.<ref name=hbw/> Accentors spend the majority of their time in the [[Understory|undergrowth]] and even when flushed, stay low to the ground until reaching cover.<ref name=hbw/>
