Green Warbler-Finch (Certhidea olivacea)
About the Green Warbler-Finch
The green warbler-finch (Certhidea olivacea) is a species of bird, one of Darwin's finches (which are mainly found in the Galápagos Islands) in the tanager family Thraupidae. Sometimes classified in the family Emberizidae, more recent studies have shown it to belong in the tanager family. When Darwin collected it in 1835 during the Beagle survey expedition he mistakenly thought it was a wren, but on return to England he was informed in March 1837 by the ornithologist John Gould that the bird was in the group of finches. It is endemic to the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador.
