The red-cowled cardinal (''Paroaria dominicana'') is a bird species in the tanager family (Thraupidae). It was formerly placed in the Emberizidae and is not very closely related to the cardinals proper (Cardinalidae). It is endemic to Brazil. It occurs in a wide range of dry to semi-humid open to semi-open habitats in north-eastern Brazil, especially the Caatinga region. It has been introduced (probably by means of escaped caged individuals) to Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, being locally common even in urban areas.〔José Felipe Monteiro Pereira, ''Aves e Pássaros Comuns do Rio de Janeiro'', Rio de Janeiro, Technical Books, 2008, ISBN 978-85-61368-00-5 , pg.138.〕 ==References== 〔 ==External links== *(Red-cowled Cardinal videos ) on the Internet Bird Collection *(Red-cowled Cardinal photo gallery ) VIREO (Photo-High Res--(Close-up) ) 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「Red-cowled cardinal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
