Under Sibley and Monroe, the members of Orthotomus are assigned to the Acrocephalinae. Howard and Moore 2003 treat them as Genera Incertae Sedis, coming immediately after the Cisticolidae. |
General
The following is based on analysis of dictionaries and other sources. Comments and corrections welcome. Malaysian names are now being updated. For consistency, Vietnamese bird names (except for ducks and chickens) are preceded by the word Chim meaning 'bird'. Ornithological lists mostly omit this as understood.

In Vietnamese, the tailorbirds are known as Chim chích bông, or 'plant-floss warbler bird'. The term bông is used for cotton, cotton-wool, cotton-like material, fluff, flowers, blossoms, the ears (of grain plants), etc. In this case it may refer to the floss that the tailorbirds use to pad their nests.
