''Melospiza'' is a genus of passerine birds in family Emberizidae. The genus, commonly referred to as "song sparrows," currently contains three species, all of which are native to North America. Members of ''Melospiza'' are medium-sized sparrows with long tails, which are pumped in flight and held moderately high on perching. They are not seen in flocks, but as a few individuals or solitary. They prefer brushy habitats, often near water. == Species of ''Melospiza'' == *Lincoln's sparrow, ''Melospiza lincolnii''. *Song sparrow, ''Melospiza melodia''. *Swamp sparrow, ''Melospiza georgiana''. == See also == * American sparrows == References == * (Sparrow characteristics ) == External links == * (ITIS ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Melospiza」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
