Bird
True finches are passerine birds in the family Fringillidae. They are predominantly seed-eating songbirds. Most are native to the Northern Hemisphere, but one subfamily is endemic to the Neotropics, one to the Hawaiian Islands, and one subfamily – monotypic at genus level – is found only in the Palaearctic. A few sub-families and genera are: Fringilla, Grosbeaks, American Rosefinches, Bullfinches, Arid-zone Calde, Asain Rosefinches, Goldfinsh-canary-crossbill Clade, Caruelinae, Drepanidinae, and Euphoniinae.
