Warbler Guy, are there any New World warblers that occur in their own family and where shall I look?



The Olive Warbler, Peucedramus taeniatus , is a small passerine bird. It is the only member of the genus Peucedramus and the family Peucedramidae.

Prothonotary
Worm-eating
Yellow-breasted Chat (in weird light, I agree: Its breast looks orange and NOT yellow!)
