El escribano cerillo (Emberiza citrinella) está clasificado como Casi Amenazado (NT) en la Lista Roja de la UICN. Es un pequeño emberícido que habita campos de cultivo abiertos, setos y linderos forestales de Europa y Asia occidental; los machos muestran una llamativa cabeza y pecho amarillos. La intensificación agrícola, con la consiguiente reducción del alimento y los cambios en el hábitat, ha provocado un rápido declive en numerosos países europeos.
