Sulphury Flycatcher (Tyrannopsis sulphurea)
About the Sulphury Flycatcher
The sulphury flycatcher (Tyrannopsis sulphurea) is a passerine bird of the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found on Trinidad and in every mainland South American country except Argentina, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The sulphury flycatcher was originally described as Muscicapa sulphurea, erroneously classifying it as an Old World flycatcher. Robert Ridgway erected genus Tyrannopsis for it in 1905. The sulphury flycatcher is the only member of its genus and has no subspecies.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 96 recordings for this species: 1 CC BY-NC-SA. 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.
