Taxonomy and systematicsHooded seedeaterThe hooded seedeater was a proposed bird species described by Austrian ornithologist August von Pelzeln as Spermophila melanops in 1870. The only known individual was heavily moulted and caught in October 1823 from a flock of other seedeater species at the edge of a lake 15 kilometres north of Registro do Araguaia, Brazil. It is now considered to be either a hybrid or an abnormal specimen of the yellow-bellied seedeater. The bird had a black crest and throat, the upperparts were olive and the underparts showed a dingy buff. In contrast, a typical yellow-bellied seedeater has pale yellow underparts and the black colouring extends to the upper breast. Distribution and habitatThe yellow-bellied seedeater is found in Central and South America from Costa Rica to Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, pastureland, and heavily degraded former forest. ThreatsOne study in Brazil, estimated that 16,800 yellow-bellied seedeaters are illegal caught and sold as pets annually.[2] References1. ^{{IUCN|id=22723440 |title=Sporophila nigricollis |assessor=BirdLife International |assessor-link=BirdLife International |version=2013.2 |year=2012 |accessdate=26 November 2013}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q1413302}}{{DEFAULTSORT:seedeater, yellow-bellied}}{{Thraupidae-stub}}2. ^Regueira, R.
