| Suiriri Flycatcher Suiriri suiriri (aka Chaco Suiriri, Campo Suiriri) |
||||
 |
Brazil The Suiriri Flycatcher is distributed from north-east Brazil to central Argentina and into Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay. See the distribution map at xeno-canto. |
|||
 |
The nominate sub-species has an olive-grey rump, a grey belly and a thin grey tip to the tail.
There has been some confusion in the past between this species and Chapada Flycatcher partly to do with esoteric things such as junior synonyms but I think that I now understand the current situation. |

 |
Photos 1 to 4 are of the nominate species found in the south of its range while photos 5 and 6 from Minas Gerais are of the subspecies S. s. burmeisteri showing a yellowish belly and crissum along with paler buffy yellow base of tail and rump. | |||
 |
The birds in photos 1 and 2 were recorded by Jeremy Minns. | |||
