The Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius) is a species of bird occurring over a vast region from Western Europeand north-west Africa to the Indian Subcontinent and further to the eastern seaboard of Asia and down into south-east Asia. Across its vast range, several very distinct racial forms have evolved to look very different from each other, especially when forms at the extremes of its range are compared.
The bird is called jay, without any epithets, by English speakers in Britain and Ireland.
