Betula utilis to overuse of the tree for firewood. "Betula utilis" was described and named by botanist David Don in his "Prodromus Florae Nepalensis" (1825), from specimens collected by Nathaniel Wallich in Nepal in 1820. "Betula jacquemontii" (Spach), first described and named in 1841, was later found to be a variety of "B. utilis", and is now "Betula utilis" var. "jacquemontii".

It frequently grows among scattered conifers, with an undergrowth of shrubs that typically includes evergreen "Rhododendron". The tree depends on moisture
Common buzzard Common buzzard The common buzzard ("Buteo buteo") is a medium-to-large bird of prey whose range covers most of Europe and extends into Asia.

The first formal description of the common buzzard was by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1758 in the tenth edition of his "Systema Naturae" under the binomial name "Falco buteo". The genus "Buteo" was introduced by the French naturalist Bernard Germain de Lacépède in
