About the Suiriri Flycatcher

The suiriri flycatcher (Suiriri suiriri) is a species of bird in subfamily Elaeniinae of family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Suriname, and Uruguay. The suiriri flycatcher was described by the French ornithologist Louis Pierre Vieillot in 1818 under the binomial name Muscicapa suiriri. The type locality is Puerto Pinasco in Paraguay. The suiriri flycatcher is the only member of its genus. It has three subspecies, the nominate S. s. suiriri (Vieillot, 1818), S. s. burmeisteri (Kirwan, Steinheimer, Raposo & Zimmer, KJ, 2014), and S. s. bahiae (von Berlepsch, 1893).

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 140 recordings for this species: 23 CC BY-NC-SA · 22 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.
