The bird family Emberizidae contains around 300 seed-eating species, the majority of which are found in the Americas, although the genus Emberiza, with more than 40 members, is confined to the Old World.[2] Within its genus, the reed bunting is most closely related to the common reed bunting and the Pallas's reed bunting, which are sometimes classified as being in the genus Schoeniclus.

Subspecies

[edit]

Two subspecies are recognised- E. y. continentalis, which breeds in eastern Mongolia, northeast China and Ussuriland and winters in east China and E. y. yessoensis which breeds and winters in Japan and also winters in Korea.[3]
