The gray-throated warbling finch (Microspingus cabanisi) is a species of bird in the family Thraupidae. It is found in forest borders and woodland in south-eastern Brazil, far eastern Paraguay, far north-eastern Argentina, and Uruguay. It was previously considered conspecific with the buff-throated warbling finch, and together they were known as the red-rumped warbling finch. The SACC found enough evidence to split them in 2009.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Gray-throated Warbling-Finch is recorded against all the birds logged in El Palmar National Park (47 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
