Yellow-billed Tit-Tyrant (Anairetes flavirostris)
About the Yellow-billed Tit-Tyrant
The yellow-billed tit-tyrant (Anairetes flavirostris) is a species of bird in subfamily Elaeniinae of family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Peru, and as a vagrant in Uruguay. The members of genus Anairetes are known commonly as tit-tyrants because their active foraging behavior and crests are reminiscent of the true tits in the family Paridae. The genus had formerly been named Spizitornis. The yellow-billed tit-tyrant has these four subspecies: A. f. huancabambae (Chapman, 1924) A. f. arequipae (Chapman, 1926) A. f. cuzcoensis (Chapman, 1924) A. f. flavirostris Sclater, PL & Salvin, 1876.
