White-throated Flycatcher

The white-throated flycatcher (Empidonax albigularis) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Mexico and every country in Central America. == Taxonomy and systematics == The white-throated flycatcher has three subspecies, the nominate E. a. albigularis (Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1859), E. a. timidus (Nelson, 1900), and E. a. australis (Miller, W & Griscom, 1925). These subdivisions "are not solidly established" due to their similarity and the relatively small number, age, and season of collection of specimens. == Description == The white-throated flycatcher is 12 to 14 cm (4.7 to 5.5 in) long. Three individuals weighed 10.4 to 11 g (0.37 to 0.39 oz). The sexes are alike. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a brownish olive or olive brown crown and dull buffy-white lores and eye-ring on an otherwise paler brownish olive or olive brown face. Their upperparts are brownish olive or olive brown. Their tail is deep grayish brown with light brownish olive on the feather edges. Their wings are mostly a darker grayish brown than the upperparts, with wide light buffy brown or brownish buff tips on the median and greater coverts that show prominently as two wing bars.…
