La Sagra's Flycatcher (Myiarchus sagrae)
About the La Sagra's Flycatcher
La Sagra's flycatcher (Myiarchus sagrae) is a passerine bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Cuba, the Bahamas, and Grand Cayman in the West Indies and as a vagrant to Alabama and Florida. La Sagra's flycatcher was formally described as Muscicapa sagre, mistakenly placing it in the Old World flycatcher family. At times it and the stolid flycatcher (Myiarchus stolidus) have been considered conspecific. La Sagra's flycatcher has two subspecies, the nominate M. s. sagrae (Gundlach, 1852) and M. s. lucaysiensis (Bryant, 1867). This treatment might not be final, as some evidence places M. s. sagrae as more closely related to the nominate subspecies of the stolid flycatcher than to M. s. lucaysiensis.
