Rhynchospiza is a genus of American sparrows. It was formerly included in Aimophila, but recent molecular studies show these two species to merit their own genus.[1][2] Both species are distributed in South America.

gollark: Do I have to track down the IR logs?

gollark: I didn't tweak the code. What is the error?

gollark: Yes it does.

gollark: I'll fire up my emulator.

gollark: There may be an issue with settings handling, then.
