Setophaga
''Setophaga'' is a genus of birds of the New World warbler family Parulidae. It contains at least 33 species. The males in breeding plumage are often highly colorful. The ''Setophaga'' warblers are an example of adaptive radiation with the various species using different feeding techniques and often feeding in different parts of the same tree.
==Taxonomy==
Most members of the genus as currently recognized were traditionally classified as the genus ''Dendroica'', 29 species at the time of the merger. The only member of the genus ''Setophaga'' was the American redstart. Genetic research has suggested that ''Dendroica'' and ''Setophaga'' should be merged. This change has been accepted by the North American Classification Committee of the American Ornithologists' Union and the IOC World Bird List.〔IOC World Bird List (New World warblers & oropendolas )〕 As the name ''Setophaga'' (published in 1827) takes priority over ''Dendroica'' (published in 1842), those who accept the merger transfer all the species below to ''Setophaga''. The South American Classification Committee of the AOU continues to use the former classification for the genus ''Dendroica'' and ''Parula'' for species present under their purview. They also place hooded warbler in the genus ''Wilsonia''.
