The best way for me to explain the answers is to point you to:
http://www.sibleyguides.com/2011/06/the-new-wood-warbler-taxonomy/
Here, you'll learn, for example, that the Parula, Wilsonia, and Dendroica genera have vanished, with their species merging into other genera.
There's also a link to a Q & A interview with Irby Lovette, who is the lead author and researcher that championed the taxonomy changes.
