Cinereous finch
Piezorina cinerea
The cinereous finch (Piezorina cinerea) is a species of finch-like bird previously placed in the Emberizidae family, but it was recently found to belong to the Thraupidae. The term cinereous describes its colouration. It is the only member of the genus Piezorina. It is found in arid coastal northern Peru, with a single record, presumably a straying bird, from immediately adjacent Ecuador.
