Euler's Flycatcher
Lathrotriccus euleri (Cabanis, 1868)
Tyrannidae — Tyrant Flycatchers, Calyptura
Euler's Flycatcher, Lathrotriccus euleri, is a passerine of the Tyrannidae family that breeds widely across South America. It occurs in Trinidad and in mainland South America, with records from every country there except Chile, and it was once also present on Grenada. The species has five subspecies and a complex naming history, with some forms formerly placed in other genera and even treated as separate species. It is named after the Swiss ornithologist Carl Euler and shares its genus with the grey-breasted flycatcher.
