Dubois's seedeater, scientifically named Sporophila ardesiaca, is a bird species that belongs to the family Thraupidae. It is closely related to the widespread yellow-bellied seedeater, and some sources suggest it may be more appropriately classified as a subspecies of the yellow-bellied seedeater.
