Furtive Flycatcher
Ficedula disposita (Ripley & Marshall, JT Jr, 1967)
Muscicapidae — Chats, Old World Flycatchers
Furtive Flycatcher, Ficedula disposita, is a bird of Luzon in the northern Philippines and belongs to the Muscicapidae. It is tied to tropical moist lowland forest and tropical moist montane forest, and it also uses bamboo groves and secondary forest. The bird is usually hard to notice, often seen alone or in pairs near the forest floor, where it may remain still for long periods. It was once known from only one female specimen, and it was formerly grouped with the Cryptic Flycatcher and the Lompobattang Flycatcher before being recognised as distinct.
