Phylloscopus emeiensis Alström & Olsson, 1995
Phylloscopidae — Leaf Warblers
Emei Leaf Warbler, Phylloscopus emeiensis, is a leaf warbler of the family Phylloscopidae that breeds in southern China. It was described by Alström and Olsson in 1995 and is placed in the order Passeriformes. Its breeding range is local, with records from Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong and recently Shaanxi, and it has also been recorded as a vagrant in Myanmar. It is a small passerine with a greyish-green crown, a pale crown-stripe, a yellowish supercilium and two clear wing-bars. It is very similar to Claudia's leaf warbler, but the crown pattern is less strongly contrasted.
