Dendroica

Dendroica is a genus of birds of the New World Warbler family Parulidae. It contains 29 species. The males in breeding plumage are often highly colorful. The Dendroica warblers are an example of adaptive radiation with the various species using different feeding techniques and often feeding in different parts of the same tree.

Taxonomy
Recent genetic research has suggested that Dendroica and Setophaga should be merged. As the name Setophaga (published in 1827) takes priority over Dendroica (published in 1842), those who accept the merger transfer all the species below to Setophaga. This change has been accepted by the AOU, but has not yet been taken up by the IOC.
