PYRRHULOIDES (Pyrrhulinae) Blyth, Journ. as. Soc. Bengal 1844. XIII. 951. 
= Pyrrhula Möhr. 
Synon.: Pyrrhoplectes Hodgs. 
Connects the Pyrrhuline with the Bunting form of bill, and presents some 
appearance of an affinity with the Ploceus group. As viewed from above the 
beak is bulged as in Pyrrhula, but not quite so short and broad, and the lateral 
aspect is that of a stout Emberiza bill, having the tomiae of the mandibles much 
inflected, and the upper one similarly scooped, while the lower is proportionably 
thickened; the tip of the upper a little overhangs that of the lower mandible. 
Nostrils basal, and concealed by short reflected plumes. Wings of mean length, 
having the 2. 3. 4. primaries subequal and longest. Tarse as long as the middle 
toe, the feet formed for perching, the two lateral toes nearly equal and the claws 
moderate, the anterior somewhat straight.
