Subspecies
Closely related to Northern Citrine Warbler (Myiothlypis luteoviridis) and Black-crested Warbler (Myiothlypis nigrocristata). A specimen record from Colombia (at 3400 m) may represent an additional, undescribed, subspecies, but the specimen apparently resembles nominate subspecies of Northern Citrine Warbler (Myiothlypis luteoviridis) and may belong with that species.

The following 2 subspecies are recognised:

signata Berlepsch and Stolzmann, 1906 - Andes of central Peru (Jun�n to Cuzco).
flavovirens (Todd, 1929) - Andes from southern Peru south to extreme northern Argentina.
