White-headed Brushfinch (Atlapetes albiceps)
About the White-headed Brushfinch
The white-headed brushfinch (Atlapetes albiceps) is a species of bird in the family Passerellidae, the New World sparrows. It is found in Ecuador and Peru. The white-headed brushfinch was formally described in 1884 with the binomial Buarremon albiceps. In the early twentieth century genus Buarremon was merged into Atlapetes. The white-headed brushfinch is monotypic. However, some authors have suggested that the pale-headed brushfinch (A. palidiceps) should be a subspecies of it but they are not closely related.
