About the Dwarf Tyrant-Manakin
The dwarf tyrant-manakin or dwarf tyranneutes (Tyranneutes stolzmanni) is a species of bird in the family Pipridae, the manakins. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. The dwarf tyrant-manakin was originally described in 1906 as Pipra stolzmanni. It was later transferred to genus Tyranneutes that Sclater and Salvin had erected in 1881.
The dwarf tyrant-manakin is monotypic. It shares genus Tyranneutes with the tiny tyrant-manakin (T. virescens) and the two form a superspecies. The dwarf tyrant-manakin is 7.5 to 9 cm (3.0 to 3.5 in) long and weighs 6.9 to 10 g (0.24 to 0.35 oz). The sexes have the same plumage. Adults have an olive head, upperparts, wings, and tail. Their throat and breast are paler grayish olive and their belly pale yellow. They have a highly variable iris with colors ranging from yellowish white to pale grayish or pale brown. They have a dark maxilla, a paler mandible, and grayish legs and feet.
The dwarf tyrant-manakin is a bird of the western and central Amazon Basin. It is found from the southeastern third of Colombia south through eastern Ecuador and... Wikipedia →
