Bahama Yellowthroat, Geothlypis rostrata, is a passerine warbler that breeds in the Bahamas. It was first described by Bryant in 1867 and belongs to the New World warbler family. The bird is a year-round resident and is found in the understory of open pine forest, especially where bracken and thatch palm are thick. It also uses deciduous woodland in smaller numbers. It avoids marshes and other wet ground, and the different subspecies are spread across Andros, Grand Bahama, Abaco, New Providence, Eleuthera and Cat Island.
