Golden-browed Chlorophonia (Chlorophonia callophrys)
About the Golden-browed Chlorophonia
The golden-browed chlorophonia (Chlorophonia callophrys) is a species of bird in the family Fringillidae, the finches and euphonias. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. The golden-browed chlorophonia was originally described by Jean Cabanis in 1861 with the binomial Triglyphidia callophrys. Cabanis stated that the genus Triglyphidia "probably means 'with three small notches' ". The golden-browed chlorophonia and the blue-crowned chlorophonia (Chlorophonia occipitalis) were for a time treated as conspecific and now form a superspecies. The genus Chlorophonia was long placed in the family Thraupidae, the "true" tanagers. Multiple studies in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries resulted in its being reassigned to its present place in the family Fringillidae.
