Description

Description

The Chaco sparrow (Rhynchospiza strigiceps), formerly known as the stripe-capped sparrow, is a species of bird in the family Passerellidae. It is found in the Gran Chaco region of Argentina, western Paraguay and southeastern Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. The South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society (AOS) has split the former stripe-capped sparrow into two distinct species: the Yungas sparrow (Rhynchospiza dabennei) and Chaco sparrow (Rhynchospiza strigiceps sensu stricto). The Yungas sparrow was formerly considered a subspecies of R. strigiceps that inhabited the Yungas region as opposed to the Chaco.

Habitat
Chaco Sparrow typically inhabits arid, open landscapes with a significant presence of shrubbery. These environments generally consist of dry, grassy scrublands with various native flora like Prosopis, Geoffroea, Celtis, and Acacia species. Their preferred habitats extend over broad areas of dry lowland scrub and open woodlands, as well as agricultural margins that retain native dry shrubbery. These birds are associated with environments that offer a combination of grassy open spaces and shrubby vegetation, which are characteristic of the Chaco and Espinal biomes.
