Quick Facts Conservation status, Scientific classification ...

The southern grosbeak-canary was formerly placed in the genus Serinus but phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences found that the genus was polyphyletic.[2] The genus was therefore split and a number of species including the southern grosbeak-canary were moved to the resurrected genus Crithagra.[3][4]
