The species was later placed in the genus "Luscinia" but when a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010 found that "Luscinia" was not monophyletic the genus was split and several species including the firethroat were moved to the reinstated genus "Calliope".
The genus was therefore split and several species including the firethroat were moved to the reinstated genus "Calliope". The species was later moved to the genus "Luscinia" but a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010 found that "Luscinia" was not monophyletic.
