About the Flammulated Bamboo Tyrant

The flammulated bamboo tyrant (Hemitriccus flammulatus), also called flammulated pygmy-tyrant, is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. The flammulated bamboo tyrant has two subspecies, the nominate H. f. flammulatus (Berlepsch, 1901) and H. f. olivacens (Todd, 1915). Some early to mid-twentieth century authors considered the flammulated bamboo tyrant to be a subspecies of the drab-breasted bamboo tyrant (H. diops) but since at least 1966 most systems have recognized them as separate species. They and the brown-breasted bamboo tyrant (H. obsoletus) form a superspecies.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 70 recordings for this species: 11 CC BY-NC-SA · 2 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
