About the Rufous-lored Tyrannulet

The rufous-lored tyrannulet (Phylloscartes flaviventris) is a Near Threatened species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is endemic to Venezuela. The rufous-lored tyrannulet was originally described in 1897 as Leptotriccus flaviventris. It was later moved to genus Pogonotriccus and still later to its present Phylloscartes. Some authors called it the "yellow-bellied bristle-tyrant" but it gained its present English name when it was moved to Phylloscartes and the true bristle-tyrants alone were retained in Pogonotriccus. The rufous-lored tyrannulet and the cinnamon-faced tyrannulet (P. parkeri) form a superspecies. The rufous-lored tyrannulet is monotypic.
