The yellow-browed bulbul was originally described in the genus ''[[Trichophorus]]'' (a synonym for ''Criniger'') in 1839 by T. C. Jerdon on the basis of specimens from the Wynaad region and given the original binomial (or protonym) of ''Trichophorus indicus''. Formerly, the yellow-browed bulbul was classified in the genus ''[[Iole (genus)|Iole]]'' as two separate species but a study<ref>{{cite journal|author1=Dickinson, E.C.  |author2=Gregory, S.M.S. |name-list-style=amp | title= Systematic notes on Asian birds. 24.

* ''A. i. icterica'' - <small>([[Hugh Edwin Strickland|Strickland]], 1844)</small>: Originally described as a separate species in the genus ''[[Criniger]]'' from a specimen from Satara, Maharashtra. The upperparts are more greyish green and the yellow a bit duller and it is found in the northern Western Ghats population but intergrades with ''A. i. indica'' in the Londa area.<ref name=hbk />
* ''A. i. indica'' - <small>([[Thomas C. Jerdon|Jerdon]], 1839)</small>: Found in the [[Western Ghats]] and [[Nilgiris]] of India, northern and eastern Sri Lanka. This has the yellow brighter than in ''A. i. icterica''.<ref name=hbk />
* ''A. i. guglielmi'' - <small>([[Sidney Dillon Ripley|Ripley]], 1946)</small>: Found in south-western Sri Lanka. Has a more greenish plumage with the underparts tinged green unlike the bronzy tinge of ''A. i. indica''.<ref name=hbk />
