Subject to great uncertainty, the eighteen-tribe iteration of the Thraupidae totals somewhere in the range of approximately 387 to 448 species, plus one recently extinct. To take a familiar example, the widespread Bananaquit ( Coereba flaveola) is conspicuously diverse and almost certainly includes more than one species, but the subdivisions within it are complex, and definitive lines are difficult to draw. The species-level taxonomy of this huge family has many areas of instability, and large-scale subdivisions of some “species” seem overdue. That revision seems likely, if not inevitable, as members of both groups share most of their descriptive features with many current thraupids, and the difference between classifying them as closely affiliated families versus subfamilies seems to be a fundamentally subjective and arbitrary judgment. This arrangement excludes two closely related branches-each currently recognized as an independent family, the Mitrospingidae (mitrospingid tanagers) and Cardinalidae (cardinals)-which could be regarded as subfamilies within the Thraupidae. Sporophilini: Neotropical seedeaters (41 to 43 species) Poospizini: Warbling-finches (47 to 52 species)Ĭoeribini: Bullfinches (33 to 42 species, plus one extinct) Tachyphonini: Ornamented tanagers (31 to 34 species)Ĭharitospizini: Coal-crested Finch (1 species)Įmberizoidini: Grass-finches (6 or 7 species) Hemithraupini: Yellow-and-black tanagers (9 species) Thraupini: Tangara tanagers (56 to 69 species)ĭacninae: Twelve tribes of tanagers and finches (271 to 306 species, plus one extinct)Ĭonirostrini: Conebills (11 to 13 species)ĭiglossini: Sierra-finches (54 to 67 species) Pipraeideini: Mountain-tanagers (22 to 32 species)Ĭissopini: Cardinal-tanagers (26 to 28 species) Orchesticini: Grosbeak-tanagers (2 species) Porphyrospizini: Inca-finches (9 or 10 species) Thraupinae: Six tribes of tanagers and finches (116 to 142 species)
