Hooded siskin taxonomy
The Fringillidae is the family of siskins, canaries, grosbeaks and euphonias. The family Fringillidae was first introduced by William Elford Leach, MD, FRS (2 February 1791 – 25 August 1836), an English zoologist and marine biologist, in the year 1820. The family Fringillidae comprises three subfamilies, viz., Fringillinae, Carduelinae and Euphoniinae. The subfamily Carduelinae was first described by Nicholas Aylward Vigors (1785 – 26 October 1840), an Irish zoologist, in the year 1825. The subfamily Carduelinae comprises 184 species divided into 49 genera, including genus Spinus. The genus Spinus contains twenty siskin species, including Spinus magellanicus. The genus Spinus was first described by Carl Ludwig Koch (21 September 1778 – 23 August 1857), a German entomologist and arachnologist, in the year 1816. The species Spinus magellanicus is polytypic and comprises twelve subspecies. The species S. magellanicus was first described by Louis Pierre Vieillot (May 10, 1748 – August 24, 1830), a French ornithologist, in the year 1805.| Taxonomic classification | |
