About the Dwarf Vireo

The dwarf vireo (Vireo nelsoni) is a species of bird in the family Vireonidae, the vireos, greenlets, and shrike-babblers. It is endemic to Mexico. The dwarf vireo was originally described in 1898 as Vireo nanus, but in 1934 James Bond recognized that the binomial V. nanus had already been used for the flat-billed vireo. Bond coined the species' present binomial and is credited with the first valid naming. The dwarf vireo is monotypic.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 26 recordings for this species: 19 CC BY-NC-SA · 7 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.
