Subspecies
No subspecies.

Anjouan Brush-Warbler (Nesillas longicaudata), Grand Comoro Brush-warbler (Nesillas brevicaudata) and Moheli Brush-warbler (Nesillas mariae) (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993), from the Comoro Islands, are retained as species contra Dowsett and Forbes-Watson (1993) who recognise only Grand Comoro Brush-warbler (Nesillas brevicaudata) and Moheli Brush-warbler (Nesillas mariae).

Considered by some authors to be a subspecies of Madagascar Brush-warbler (Nesillas typica), but differs vocally from latter and is generally treated as a full species.
