Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Recently-described flycatcher of short-stature Amazonian white sand forests. Has green-olive upperparts and yellow underparts. Note the white eyes. Predominantly forages for mistletoe in the canopy and subcanopy and rarely accompanies mixed-species flocks. The call is typically a double “tweep-tweep.”
