The phylogeny of fulvettas (Alcippe, Timaliidae) was investigated using molecular data. Fifteen species of the genus, other timaliids and Sylvioidea were used. ML and Bayesian analyses were done on separate and combined cyt ‐b and Nd2 DNA data sets. The polyphyly of the genus is confirmed. The clades correspond to the taxonomy of Wolters. We recommend that this polyphyly be taken into account when conducting phylogenetic analyses with incomplete taxonomic sampling.
