Bullfinch is a name given to two groups of
passerine birds.
The true bullfinches are thick-billed
finches in the passerine family Fringillidae. They comprise the genus
Pyrrhula. These birds are restricted to the Old World, and are:
Eurasian Bullfinch, Pyrrhula pyrrhula
Brown Bullfinch, Pyrrhula nipalensis
White-cheeked Bullfinch, Pyrrhula leucogenis
Orange Bullfinch, Pyrrhula aurantiaca
Red-headed Bullfinch, Pyrrhula erythrocephala
Grey-headed Bullfinch, Pyrrhula erythaca
Azores Bullfinch, Pyrrhula murina
There is an unrelated group of New World birds also named as bullfinches because of their superficial resemblances to the above species. These passerines were placed in the large
bunting and American "sparrow" family
Emberizidae, but are now considered
tanagers (Thraupidae). Four are in the genus
Loxigilla:
Puerto Rican Bullfinch, Loxigilla portoricensis
Greater Antillean Bullfinch, Loxigilla violacea
Lesser Antillean Bullfinch, Loxigilla noctis
Barbados Bullfinch, Loxigilla barbadensis
The fifth is
Cuban Bullfinch, Melopyrrha nigra
