Traditional genus-level classification of extant Chloropseidae following the AviList checklist v2025. (link) The number of subspecies is given in parentheses. Note that Moltensen et al. (2012) found Chloropsis cyanopogon to be non-monophyletic; moreover, the authors proposed to split several species, recognising a total of 15 species. The phylogenetic relationships among individual Chloropsis species are shown in the BOW Phylogeny Explorer tree v1.6. (link)
