Northern Oriole © nejohnston.org

Vagrant to Greenland, Grenada, Iceland, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, United Kingdom.

Icterus galbula (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993) has been split into Northern Oriole (Icterus galbula), Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockiorum) and Black-backed Oriole (Icterus abeillei) following AOU (1998).

DNA data indicate that this is sister-species of Black-backed Oriole (Icterus abeillei). Formerly treated as conspecific with Black-backed Oriole (Icterus abeillei) and with Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockiorum). Hybridizes extensively with Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockiorum) in a belt from southern Canada (Alberta and Saskatchewan) southern in Great Plains to southern USA (Oklahoma and Texas), but assortative mating (or selection against hybrids) evident at several locations.
