Adelaide's Warbler (Setophaga adelaidae)
About the Adelaide's Warbler
Adelaide's warbler (Setophaga adelaidae), or reinita mariposera in Puerto Rican Spanish, is a species of bird in the family Parulidae, the New World warblers. It is endemic to the archipelago of Puerto Rico. Adelaide's warbler was formally described in 1865 as Dendroica adelaidae. What are now the Barbuda warbler (Setophaga subita) and St. Lucia warbler (S. delicata) were long treated as subspecies of it. Several late twentieth century studies detailed genetic, plumage, morphological, and vocal differences among the three. Taxonomic systems began separating them in 2000. Beginning in 2011 taxonomic systems merged genus Dendroica into its present genus Setophaga.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 20 recordings for this species: 16 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.
