Asemospiza
''Asemospiza'' is a genus of South American birds in the tanager family Thraupidae. Taxonomy and species list These species were formerly placed in the genus ''Tiaris''. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that ''Tiaris'' was polyphyletic. In the resulting reorganization to create monophyletic genera, these two species were assigned to a new genus ''Asemospiza'' with the sooty grassquit as the type species. The name combines the Ancient Greek ἄσημος/''asēmos'' meaning "without marks" with σπίζα/''spiza'' meaning "finch". These two species are in the subfamily Coerebinae and form a sister clade to the Darwin's finches Darwin's finches (also known as the Galápagos finches) are a group of about 18 species of passerine birds. They are well known for their remarkable diversity in beak form and function. They are often classified as the subfamily Geospizinae or t ....

Dull-coloured Grassquit
The dull-coloured grassquit (''Asemospiza obscura'') is a small bird. It is recognized as a tanager closely related to Darwin's finches. Distribution and habitat It is found in northwestern Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and western Venezuela. It is a vagrant to Paraguay and central Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland The subtropical zones or subtropics are geographical and climate zones to the north and south of the tropics. Geographically part of the temperate zones of both hemispheres, they cover the middle latitudes from to approximately 35° north and ..., subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, and heavily degraded former forest.

Thraupidae
The tanagers (singular ) comprise the bird family Thraupidae, in the order Passeriformes. The family has a Neotropical distribution and is the second-largest family of birds. It represents about 4% of all avian species and 12% of the Neotropical birds. Traditionally, the family contained around 240 species of mostly brightly colored fruit-eating birds. As more of these birds were studied using modern molecular techniques, it became apparent that the traditional families were not monophyletic. ''Euphonia'' and ''Chlorophonia'', which were once considered part of the tanager family, are now treated as members of the Fringillidae, in their own subfamily (Euphoniinae). Likewise, the genera ''Piranga'' (which includes the scarlet tanager, summer tanager, and western tanager), '' Chlorothraupis'', and '' Habia'' appear to be members of the cardinal family, and have been reassigned to that family by the American Ornithological Society.
