abstract
  • The Red-crested cardinal (Paroaria coronata), is a species of tanager in the Thraupidae family. Some disagreement exists as to whether this bird species belongs in the family Thraupidae or the bunting (known in North America as the (American) sparrow) family (Emberizidae). Notwithstanding its similar name, this bird is not closely related to the true cardinal family (Cardinalidae). It is found in northern Argentina, Bolivia, southern Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry shrubland and heavily degraded former forest. Among other regions, it is found in southern part of the Pantanal. It has also been introduced to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. In Brazil, it has been introduced to various places outside its historical range, as in the Tietê Ecological Park in São Paulo, alongside its very similar-looking close relative, the red-cowled cardinal (Paroaria dominicana). The yellow-billed cardinal (Paroaria capitata) could be easily confused with the red-crested cardinal; both the red-cowled and yellow-billed have a very short crest that is not visible except in excited birds, and in the case of the latter, a black throat, darker upper parts and a bright yellow bill.
