Identification

  • Grey hind-neck
  • Yellow rump

They are small finches, not unlike a European greenfinch, in that the males are generally green.
If seen well, this is not a difficult species to identify.

Distribution

Taxonomy

  • S. c. corsicana is considered a full species by some authorities, but here is treated as a subspecies.
