Estrildidae
Lagonosticta Cabanis , 1851
The firefinches form a genus , Lagonosticta , of small seed-eating African birds in the family Estrildidae .
The genus was introduced by the German ornithologists Jean Cabanis in 1851.[2] The type species was subsequently designated as the African firefinch .[3] The name combines the Ancient Greek words lagōn "flank" and stiktos "spotted".[4] The genus Lagonosticta is sister to the brown twinspot which is placed in its own genus Clytospiza .[5]

The genus contains 10 species:[6]
