Subspecies
No subspecies.

Recent genetic studies suggest that Tennessee Warbler (Leiothlypis peregrina), Orange-crowned Warbler (Leiothlypis celata), Nashville Warbler (Leiothlypis ruficapilla), Virginia's Warbler (Leiothlypis virginiae), Colima Warbler (Leiothlypis crissalis) and Lucy's Warbler (Leiothlypis luciae) form a clade, separate from the two other current congeners, and should be placed in a separate genus, for which the name Leiothlypis has been proposed. Flame-throated Warbler (Oreothlypis gutturalis) and Crescent-chested Warbler (Oreothlypis superciliosa) appear to be sister to this group. Has hybridized with Nashville Warbler (Leiothlypis ruficapilla) and Black-throated Blue Warbler (Setophaga caerulescens).
