Tawny-chested Flycatcher

The tawny-chested flycatcher (Aphanotriccus capitalis) is a small Vulnerable species of passerine bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Costa Rica and previously was also found in Nicaragua. == Taxonomy and systematics == The tawny-chested flycatcher was originally described in 1865 as Myiobius capitalis. It was moved to the newly erected genus Aphanotriccus in 1905 with this species as the type specimen. The tawny-chested flycatcher is monotypic. It shares genus Aphanotriccus with the black-billed flycatcher (A. audax). == Description == The tawny-chested flycatcher is 12 to 13 cm (4.7 to 5.1 in) long and weighs about 11 g (0.39 oz). The sexes have almost the same plumage and resemble a more brightly colored version of an Empidonax flycatcher. Adult males have a dark gray crown, dark lores with a white stripe above them, and a broken white eye-ring. Females have an olive tinge on their crown. Both sexes have an olive-green nape, back, and rump with an ochraceous tinge on all but the rump. Their wings are dusky with bright ochraceous tips on the coverts that show as two wing bars and bright ochraceous edges on the secondaries and tertials. Their tail is dusky olive.…
