摘　　要：The systematics of the avian superfamily Sylvioidea are reviewed, focusing on studies of relationships among families and within genera, more superficially on taxonomic studies at the species level. For the families Bernieridae and Phylloscopidae, new analyses based on already published sequence data are presented. Our understanding of relationships has been vastly improved in recent years due to a large number of molecular studies. However, the relationships among the different families remain largely obscured, probably mainly as a result of rapid divergence of the different primary lineages (families). Also, species level taxonomy has been much improved in recent years due to a large number of studies applying molecular markers and/or vocalizations and other life-history data. It seems likely that the number of species will continue to increase, as new groups are being studied with modern integrative methods.本文评述了莺总科鸟类的系统分类,并重点探讨科间、属内系统发育关系以及种级分类地位。基于已发表的 DNA 序列数据,对马岛莺科(Bernieridae)和柳莺科(Phylloscopidae)重新进行了分析。大量的分子水平的研究让我们对鸟类系统发育的认识有了很大提高。但是,由于一些主要进化分支(科)的快速分化,使得这些科之间的相互关系依然不明确。同样,分子标记和(或)鸣声及其他生活史资料在大量研究中的应用,大大提高了种级水平的分类可靠性。我们推测,随着人们运用现代的整合方法对新类群的不断研究,物种数量会不断增加。
