Long-legged bunting : ウィキペディア英語版 | Long-legged bunting
The long-legged bunting (''Emberiza alcoveri'') is an extinct flightless species of bunting. It was distinguishable by its long legs and short wings, and it inhabited the Canary Islands. It is one of the few flightless Passerines known to science, all of which are extinct. ==Taxonomy==
This bunting belongs to the ''Emberiza'' genus, and is closest related to the Cabanis's bunting (''E. cabanisi'') and the yellowhammer (''E. citrinella''). ''Emberiza'' is a genus inside the bunting family, Emberizidae, which is made up of small, seed-eating birds with distinctive bill shapes. The species name, ''alcoveri'', is in honour of J. A. Alcover, who contributed to fossil fauna knowledge and information.〔
