The Black-throated Finch Poephila cincta is a species of estrildid finch found in grassy woodlands throughout north-east Australia from Cape York Peninsula to north-east New South Wales.

Subspecies
The Black-throated Finch has two subspecies as followed:

- Poephila cincta cincta
- Poephila cincta atropygialis

Threats
For the past few decades, the population of this species has declined. The reason for the declined population is probably due to spread of pastoralism, changes in fire regime and increases in the density of native woody weeds in grassy savannas.
