Birds of this genus are known commonly as Grassland sparrows.[1] The name Ammodramus is from the Greek for "sand runner".[2] These birds live in grassland habitat. Some Ammodramus are socially monogamous and both parents care for the young. Other species are polygynous with no pair bonding and no paternal care.[3] Numerous species have been included in this genus, but have been reclassified into different genera by sources such as Birdlife International. Former and current species in this genus include:[1][4][5] Species
The fossil Ammodramus hatcheri (Late Miocene of Kansas, United States) was formerly placed in genus Palaeospiza or Palaeostruthus. The former may not be a passeriform at all, while the latter was eventually synonymized with Ammodramus, as A. hatcheri scarcely differs from the living species.[6] References{{Commonscat}}1. ^1 [https://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&search_value=179332 Ammodramus.] Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) {{Taxonbar|from=Q695679}}2. ^Beedy, E.
