The Citril finch belongs to the finch family, and the suborder of songbirds and order of passerine (sparrows).
The diet of the Citril Finch (Serinus citrinella) in its eastern range is well known, especially in spring; however, no data are available from its western populations.

 SEXING FLEDGLINGS OF CARDUELINE FINCHES BY PLUMAGE COLOR AND MORPHOMETRIC VARIABLES
Our studies of cardueline finches showed some variation in the plumage color of fledglings, however, which we thought could be related to sex.
In this paper, we use data gathered on Citril Finches (Serinus citrinella) to evaluate whether fledgling plumage color or morphometric variables can be used to identify the sex of fledglings and to identify measurements that can be taken in the field to sex correctly individual birds.
MATERIALS AND METHODS Citril Finch fledglings (EURING age 3J) were captured using mist nets in the Port del Comte mountains (Pre-Pyrenees, in northeastern Spain) during the summer of 1991.
