Yemen Serin (Crithagra menachensis)
About the Yemen Serin
The Yemen serin (Crithagra menachensis) is a species of finch in the family Fringillidae. It is found in Oman, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. The Yemen serin was formerly placed in the genus Serinus but phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences found that the genus was polyphyletic. The genus was therefore split and a number of species, including the Yemen serin were moved to the resurrected genus Crithagra.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 14 recordings for this species: 10 CC BY-NC-SA · 4 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
