The Green warbler finch or Phylloscopus nitidus, also known as green willow warbler or green leaf warbler, is a leaf warbler found in the Caucasus Mountains in southcentral Europe.
Like all leaf warblers, it was formerly placed in the “Old World warbler” assemblage, but now belongs to the new leaf-warbler family Phylloscopidae.
The genus name Phylloscopus is from Ancient Greek phullon, “leaf”, and skopos, “seeker” (from skopeo, “to watch”). The specific nitidus is from Latin and means “shining”.
The Green warbler finch or Phylloscopus nitidus is most closely related to the greenish warbler but is brighter in color, and the underside is much more yellow. It has one strong and one faint wing bar, especially in young birds.
Certhidea olivacea is a species of bird, one of Darwin’s finches in the tanager family Thraupidae. Sometimes classified in the family Emberizidae, more recent studies have shown it to belong in the tanager family.
It is endemic to the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador. The Green Warbler finch or Phylloscopus nitidus is closely related to the grey warbler-finch, and were formerly considered conspecfic, but both species differ in appearance, distribution, habitat, and song.
The green warbler finch or Phylloscopus nitidus consists of only one subspecies, the nominate olivacea, from Santiago, Rábida, Pinzón, Isabela, Fernandina, and Santa Cruz.
Green warbler finches have a greenish coloration to blend into their lusher semi humid forest habitats, as well as distinctive reddish throat patches on breeding males.
