The grey-crowned warbler (Phylloscopus tephrocephalus) is a species of Old World warbler in the family Phylloscopidae. It is found in Bangladesh, China , India , Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.[1]

The grey-crowned warbler was previously placed in the genus Seicercus. However, a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2018 found that neither Phylloscopus nor Seicercus were monophyletic.[2] In the subsequent reorganization, the two genera were merged into Phylloscopus, which has priority under the rules of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature.[3]
