Answer» C. Birds | |
Explanation: Darwin's finches (also known as the Galapagos finches) are a group of about 15 species of passerine birds. They often are classified as the subfamily Geospizinae or tribe Geospizini. It is still not clear which bird familythey belong to, but they are not related to the true finches. They were first collected by Charles Darwin on the Galapagos Islands during the second voyage of the Beagle. All are found only on the Galapagos Islands, except the Cocos Island Finch from Cocos Island. |
