Lined Seedeater (Sporophila lineola) [XC521914]
     by Caio Brito from S\u00e3o Francisco do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil (song)

     by Guilherme Willrich from Floresta Estadual Edmundo Navarro de Andrade (FEENA), Rio Claro, S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil (song)

Subspecies
No subspecies.

Molecular evidence suggests that genus is closely related to Oryzoborus, which should perhaps be subsumed within it. Further, that both genera should be placed in the tanager family (Thraupidae). Forms a superspecies with Lesson's Seedeater (Sporophila bouvronides) and has been treated as conspecific.
