File:Neochmia ruficauda.jpg to appear as POTD soon
Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Neochmia ruficauda.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on October 6, 2011. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2011-10-06. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks!  howcheng  {chat} 16:39, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Origin
Origin and phylogeny has been obtained by Antonio Arnaiz-Villena et al. Estrildinae may have originated in India and dispersed thereafter (towards Africa and Pacific Ocean habitats).


 * I removed the above section as off topic for a single species, the same paper is referenced at Estrildid finch. — cygnis insignis 05:04, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
