Subspecies
No subspecies.

Recent studies of mitochondrial DNA indicate that this species and Blue-winged Warbler (Vermivora cyanoptera) form a clade, separate from the other species currently placed in genus. A recent study indicates that Prothonotary Warbler (Protonotaria citrea) and Swainson's Warbler (Limnothlypis swainsonii) may also be genetically close to this species pair. Hybridizes regularly with Blue-winged Warbler (Vermivora cyanoptera) where breeding ranges overlap.
