Grey-crowned Yellowthroat (Geothlypis poliocephala)
About the Grey-crowned Yellowthroat
The grey-crowned yellowthroat (Geothlypis poliocephala) is a species of bird in the family Parulidae, the New World warblers. It is found from Mexico to Panama. The black-polled yellowthroat was formally described in 1859 with its current binomial Geothlypis poliocephala. Some authors have placed the species in the monotypic genus Chamaethlypis but genetic data do not support this treatment. The grey-crowned yellowthroat has these six subspecies: G. p. poliocephala Baird, 1865 G. p. ralphi Ridgway, 1894 G. p. palpebralis Ridgway, 1887 G. p. caninucha Ridgway, 1872 G. p. icterotis Ridgway, 1889 G. p. ridgwayi (Griscom, 1930).

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 91 recordings for this species: 12 CC BY-NC-SA · 4 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
