Grey-crowned Warbler

Phylloscopus tephrocephalus (Anderson, 1871)

Phylloscopidae — Leaf Warblers

Grey-crowned Warbler, Phylloscopus tephrocephalus, is a leaf warbler of the family Phylloscopidae, breeding from north-east India to north Vietnam and central China, and wintering in northern south-east Asia. It was described by Anderson in 1871. Formerly placed in Seicercus, it is now included in Phylloscopus after a 2018 molecular study showed that neither genus formed a natural group, and the merged name Phylloscopus takes precedence.
