Whistler's warbler (Seicercus whistleri) is a species of leaf warbler (family Phylloscopidae). It was formerly included in the "Old World warbler" assemblage.

It is found in the Indian subcontinent, primarily the Himalayas. Its range includes Bhutan, India, Nepal, Tibet and Pakistan. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest.

The common name commemorates the English ornithologist Hugh Whistler.
