Whipbirds and wedgebills are collectively recognised in the genus Psophodes.[3] Wedgebills are divided into the chirruping wedgebill (Psophodes cristatus) and the chiming wedgebill (Psophodes occidentalis). Whipbirds are divided into the eastern whipbird (Psophodes olivaceus) and the western whipbird (Psophodes nigrogularis). Subspecies of the western whipbird residing in Western Australia are known to be endangered.[4] Psophodes is a genus of five species of songbirds endemic to Australia, known as whipbirds and wedgebills.[5]
