House Sparrow Passer domesticus showing Erythrism or erythrochroism. Photo taken in Thane district, Maharashtra.

Causes of erythrism include genetic mutations which cause an absence of a normal pigment and/or excessive production of others, diet, as in bees feeding on "bright red (colored) corn syrup" used in maraschino cherry manufacturing.
