Worm-eating warbler taxonomy
The Parulidae is the family of New World warblers or wood-warblers. The family Parulidae was first introduced by Frank Alexander Wetmore (June 18, 1886 – December 7, 1978), an American ornithologist and avian paleontologist, in the year 1947.The family Parulidae comprises seventeen genera, including genus Helmitheros. The genus Helmitheros is monotypic and contains only one species Helmitheros vermivorum.
The genus Helmitheros was first described by Constantine Samuel Rafinesque-Schmaltz (22 October 1783 – 18 September 1840), a zoologist, botanist, writer and polyglot, in the year 1819.
The species Helmitheros vermivorum was first described (as Helmitheros vermivorus) by Johann Friedrich Gmelin (8 August 1748 – 1 November 1804), a German naturalist, botanist, entomologist and herpetologist, in the year 1789.
The species H. vermivorum is monotypic. As this species is mostly insectivorous and any reduction in the insect population due to pesticide use will have a telling effect on the survival of this warbler species.
