Chapada Flycatcher

Guyramemua affine (Burmeister, 1856)

Chapada Flycatcher, Guyramemua affine, is a passerine of the tyrant flycatcher family that breeds in south-central Brazil and eastern Bolivia. It lives in cerrado country, including campo cerrado and campo sujo, where shrubs and scattered trees stand in grassland. The bird was first described by Burmeister in 1856. It is a year-round resident across its range. Its identification is helped by the fact that both sexes look alike, and by the pale wing bars, whitish face, yellow belly and undertail coverts, and the darker tail with pale outer webs and broad pale tips.
