Gymnoris is a genus of passerine birds in the sparrow family Passeridae. Three species are found in Africa while the yellow-throated sparrow ranges from Turkey to India.
The genus was introduced by the English zoologist Edward Blyth in 1845 with the yellow-throated sparrow as the type species.[2][3] The name combines the Ancient Greek words gumnos "bare" or "naked" and rhinos "nostrils".[4]
