Prinia is a genus of small insectivorous birds belonging to the passerine bird family Cisticolidae. They were at one time classed in the Old World warbler family, Sylviidae.

The prinias are sometimes referred to as wren-warblers. They are a little-known group of the tropical and subtropical Old World, the roughly thirty species being divided fairly equally between Africa and Asia.

These are birds mainly of open habitats such as long grass or scrub, in which they are not easily seen. They are mainly resident, migration being limited to local cold weather movements. Non-breeding birds may form small flocks.

Prinias have short wings but long tapering tails. They are fairly drab birds, brown or grey above (sometimes with dark streaks) and whitish below. Some species have different breeding and non-breeding plumages. The bill is a typical insectivore's, thin and slightly curved.

Taxonomy

The genus was erected by the American naturalist Thomas Horsfield in 1821. The type species is the bar-winged prinia (Prinia familiaris).[1][2] The name of the genus is derived from the Javanese prinya, the local name for the bar-winged prinia.[3]

A molecular phylogenetic study of the Cisticolidae published in 2013 found that the rufous-vented grass babbler did not lie within the clade containing the other prinias.[4] Based on this analysis the rufous-vented prinia and the closely related swamp grass babbler were moved to the reinstated genus Laticilla in the family Pellorneidae.[5]

List of species

The genus contains 22 species:[5]

  • Striated prinia, Prinia crinigera
  • Brown prinia, Prinia polychroa
  • Black-throated prinia, Prinia atrogularis
  • Hill prinia, Prinia superciliaris
  • Grey-crowned prinia, Prinia cinereocapilla
  • Rufous-fronted prinia, Prinia buchanani
  • Rufescent prinia, Prinia rufescens
  • Grey-breasted prinia, Prinia hodgsonii
  • Graceful prinia, Prinia gracilis
  • Jungle prinia, Prinia sylvatica
  • Bar-winged prinia, Prinia familiaris
  • Yellow-bellied prinia, Prinia flaviventris
  • Ashy prinia, Prinia socialis
  • Tawny-flanked prinia, Prinia subflava
  • Plain prinia, Prinia inornata
  • Pale prinia, Prinia somalica
  • River prinia, Prinia fluviatilis
  • Black-chested prinia, Prinia flavicans
  • Karoo prinia, Prinia maculosa
  • Drakensberg prinia, Prinia hypoxantha
  • São Tomé prinia, Prinia molleri
  • Banded prinia, Prinia bairdii

Species formerly in Prinia but now considered distinct enough to warrant separate generic treatment:

  • Sierra Leone prinia, Schistolais leontica
  • White-chinned prinia, Schistolais leucopogon

Species formerly in Prinia but now moved to Laticilla in family Pellorneidae:[4]

  • Rufous-vented grass babbler, Laticilla burnesii
  • Swamp grass babbler, Laticilla cinerascens
