O escrevedeira-amarela (Emberiza citrinella) está classificado como Quase Ameaçado (NT) na Lista Vermelha da IUCN. É um pequeno emberizídeo que habita campos agrícolas abertos, sebes e orlas florestais da Europa e Ásia Ocidental; os machos apresentam uma vistosa cabeça e peito amarelos. A intensificação agrícola, com a consequente redução da disponibilidade de alimento e as alterações no habitat, provocou um rápido declínio em numerosos países europeus.
