Classification

Class
Aves

Siberian chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita tristis) is a leaf-warbler which is usually considered a subspecies of the common chiffchaff, but may be a species in its own right. Range Siberian chiffchaff breeds in Siberia east of the Pechora River and winters in the lower Himalayas. Status in Europe and North America It is also regularly recorded in western Europe in winter, and it is likely that the numbers involved have been underestimated due to uncertainties over identification criteria, lack of good data and recording policies (Sweden and Finland only accept trapped birds).
