Subspecies
No subspecies.

Taxonomic affinities initially unclear, and had been suggested as being closely related to New World warblers (Parulidae). However, investigations of cytochrome b sequence data indicate that it is related to a clade of mostly Andean tanagers in genera Hemispingus, Cnemoscopus, Pyrrhocoma, Thlypopsis and Cypsnagra.
