Phylloscopidae
Họ Chích lá

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. Hover over Green Lettering Green lettering at this site hides a tool tip with glosses, further explanations, etc. Hover cursor to reveal. to see additional information.

The Phylloscopidae are a result of the break-up of the Sylviidae assemblage. (Others include the Locustellidae, Acrocephalidae, and Scotocercidae, as well as part of the Sylviidae.)

Like most other members of the former Sylviidae, the Phylloscopidae are ornithologically known in Vietnamese as Chích, an onomatopoeic word used as an equivalent for English 'warbler'. Since Vietnamese ornithological names have never attempted to systematically distinguish among different types of warbler, there is no distinct name for the Phylloscopidae as a whole. Within this family, the genus Seicercus was marked apart as Chích đớp ruồi 'flycatcher warbler', reflecting an older English usage, but the reassignment of many species of Phylloscopus to Seicercus has destroyed any earlier regularity.

Vietnamese names from scholarly sources are less than satisfactory. In addition to the usual misprints and inconsistencies, there are cases where the same Vietnamese name is used for more than one species (see tables).

Family name

Editors at Vietnamese Wikipedia suggest Chích lá 'leaf warbler' for Phylloscopus. This does not necessarily represent any kind of consensus but is tentatively adopted here as a family name.
