Capuchino Arrocero de Java

Uno de los pájaros enjaulados más populares en Asia Oriental, los gorriones de Java son pinzones llamativos con plumaje gris, una audaz cabeza negra, manchas blancas características en las mejillas y un brillante pico rojo. Originarios de Java y Bali en Indonesia, han sido introducidos en muchas partes de Asia, África y las Américas. Habitan pastizales abiertos, arrozales y tierras de cultivo, donde suelen convertirse en plagas para los cultivos de arroz. Clasificados como Vulnerables en su área de distribución nativa debido a la fuerte presión de captura para el comercio de aves enjauladas.
