Unadorned Flycatcher

About the Unadorned Flycatcher

The unadorned flycatcher (Myiophobus inornatus) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Bolivia and Peru. The unadorned flycatcher is monotypic. The unadorned flycatcher is about 11.5 cm (4.5 in) long and weighs about 9 to 12 g (0.32 to 0.42 oz). The sexes have almost identical plumage. Adult males have an olive crown with a mostly hidden yellow or orange patch in the middle. Females do not have this patch. Both sexes have a yellowish line above the lores and an obvious yellowish eye-ring on an otherwise olive face. Their back and rump are olive. Their wings are dusky with cinnamon rufous edges on the flight feathers and tips of the wing coverts; the latter show as two wing bars. Their tail is dusky with olive buff edges to the feathers. Their throat is yellowish white and the rest of their underparts pale yellow; the breast has faint olive streaks. They have a brown iris, a bill with a black maxilla and a pinkish brown, pale brown, or pinkish gray mandible, and highly variable gray to brown legs and feet.
