Striped Sparrow (Oriturus superciliosus)
About the Striped Sparrow
The striped sparrow (Oriturus superciliosus) is a species of bird in the family Passerellidae, the New World sparrows. It is endemic to Mexico. The striped sparrow was formally described in 1838 with the binomial Aimophila superciliosa. In 1850 Charles Lucien Bonaparte erected the genus Oriturus and in 1856 assigned Aimophila superciliosa to it. The striped sparrow is the only member of its genus. It has two subspecies, the nominate O. s. superciliosus (Swainson, 1838) and O. s. palliatus (Van Rossem, 1938).
