About the Ochraceous-breasted Flycatcher

The ochraceous-breasted flycatcher (Nephelomyias ochraceiventris) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Bolivia and Peru. The ochraceous-breasted flycatcher was originally described in 1873 as Mitrephorus ochraceiventris. From the early twentieth century it was classified in genus Myiophobus. A study published in 2009 determined that the ochraceous-breasted flycatcher and two other species did not belong in Myiophobus so the genus Nephelomyias was created for them in 2010. The ochraceous-breasted flycatcher is monotypic. It and the orange-banded flycatcher (N. lintoni) are sister species and form a superspecies.
