The Sichuan leaf warbler (Phylloscopus forresti) is a species of leaf warbler found in central China. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and heavily degraded former forest.
Leaf warblers are small insectivorous passerine birds belonging to the genus Phylloscopus. The genus was introduced by the German zoologist Friedrich Boie in 1826. The name Phylloscopus is from Ancient Greek phullon, "leaf", and skopos, "seeker".
The wood warbler is a common and widespread leaf warbler which breeds throughout northern and temperate Europe, and just into the extreme west of Asian Russia in the southern Ural Mountains.
The Arctic warbler is a widespread leaf warbler in birch or mixed birch forest near water throughout its breeding range in Fennoscandia and the northern Palearctic. It has established a foothold in North America, breeding in Alaska. This warbler is strongly migratory; the entire population winters in southeast Asia. It therefore has one of the longest migrations of any Old World insectivorous bird.
Pallas's leaf warbler or Pallas's warbler is a bird that breeds in mountain forests from southern Siberia east to northern Mongolia and northeast China. It is named for German zoologist Peter Simon Pallas, who first formally described it. This leaf warbler is strongly migratory, wintering mainly in south China and adjacent areas of southeast Asia, although in recent decades increasing numbers have been found in Europe in autumn.
Hume's leaf warbler or Hume's warbler is a small leaf warbler which breeds in the mountains of inner Asia. This warbler is migratory and winters mainly in India.
The Kolombangara leaf warbler or sombre leaf warbler is a species of Old World warbler in the family Phylloscopidae. It is found only in Solomon Islands. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Claudia's leaf warbler is a leaf warbler found only in China. Its natural habitat is temperate forests. Most taxonomists previously considered it to be a subspecies of the Blyth's leaf warbler.
Hartert's leaf warbler is a leaf warbler found only in China. Its natural habitats are temperate forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. It was previously considered a subspecies of Blyth's leaf warbler.
The black-capped woodland warbler is a leaf warbler species in the family Phylloscopidae; it was formerly placed in the "Old World warbler" assemblage.
Ijima's leaf warbler is a species of Old World warbler in the family Phylloscopidae. It is found in Japan, the Philippines, and Taiwan. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, and subtropical or tropical moist shrubland. It is threatened by habitat loss, but is locally abundant in steep and densely wooded areas whose topography makes habitat destruction for development difficult. Ijima's leaf warbler is in practice hard to tell apart from the eastern crowned warbler, by physical appearance alone. It has the same dainty and perfectly proportioned features of the typical Phylloscopus warbler. However, the song - a series of quiet but fairly far-carrying squeaking sounds - is very different from the plaintive, Old World bunting like song of the eastern crowned.
