About the Restinga Tyrannulet

The restinga tyrannulet (Phylloscartes kronei) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is endemic to Brazil. The restinga tyrannulet is monotypic. The first known specimen of the restinga tyrannulet was collected in 1898 but was misidentified as a mottle-cheeked tyrannulet (P. ventralis). Willis and Oniki corrected the error in their formal description of the new species. They assigned the specific epithet kronei in honor of Ricardo Krone, the Brazilian zoologist who collected the 1898 specimen.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 50 recordings for this species: 30 CC BY-NC-SA · 20 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.
