Myiothlypis is a genus of New World warblers, best represented in Central and South America. This is one of only two warbler genera that are well represented in the latter continent. All of these species were formerly placed in the genus Basileuterus.

Taxonomy

The genus Myiothlypis was introduced in 1851 by the German ornithologist Jean Cabanis to accommodate a single species, Trichas nigrocristatus, the black-crested warbler, that had been described in 1840 by Frédéric de Lafresnaye.[2] The genus name combines the Ancient Greek muia meaning "fly" with thlupis, an unidentified small bird.[3]

A molecular phylogenetic study of the New World warbler family Parulidae published in 2010 found that the species formed several major clades that did not align with the traditional genera.[4] This led to a major reorganization of the species within the family to create monotypic genera. As part of this rearrangement the genus Myiothlypis was resurrected to contain a clade that now includes 18 species.[4][5]

Species

The genus contains 18 species:[5]
