The genus contains about 45 species, of which only two are not found in Africa: one in Madagascar and the other from Asia to Australasia.Their generic name, Cisticola, means inhabitant (-cola) of a woven basket (cista-), referring to the finely woven nest of the zitting cisticola, the most widespread species.
