White-eyed Attila
Attila bolivianus Lafresnaye, 1848
Tyrannidae — Tyrant Flycatchers, Calyptura
White-eyed Attila, Attila bolivianus, is a passerine in the tyrant flycatcher family and breeds in southern and south-western Amazonia. It was described by Lafresnaye in 1848. Its range lies in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia and Peru, with river-edge and swamp forest among its main habitats. In the Amazon Basin it uses várzea and other wet woodland, usually along banks and islands, and farther south it occurs in gallery forest. The species has two subspecies, with the northern form extending through the Amazon nearly to the Atlantic.
