Camarhynchus is a genus of bird in the family Thraupidae; all species of Camarhynchus are endemic to the Galápagos Islands, and together with related genera they are collectively known as Darwin's finches.[1] Sometimes classified in the bunting and American sparrow family Emberizidae, more recent studies have shown it to belong in the tanager family.
It contains the following species:
- Small tree finch (Camarhynchus parvulus)
- Medium tree finch (Camarhynchus pauper)
- Large tree finch (Camarhynchus psittacula)
- Woodpecker finch (Camarhynchus pallidus)
- Mangrove finch (Camarhynchus heliobates)
The vegetarian finch (Platyspiza crassirostris) is often also included in this genus.
