The Yellow-olive Flycatcher (Tolmomyias sulphurescens) is a small passerine bird found in the tropical forests of South America. It is known for its distinctive yellow-olive plumage, with a pale yellow belly and olive-green upperparts. This species is often observed perching in the mid to upper levels of the forest canopy, where it actively hunts for insects, its primary source of food. The Yellow-olive Flycatcher is known for its distinctive call, a sharp 'che-bek' or 'pee-chee' sound. This species is generally considered to be of least concern in terms of conservation status, as it has a wide distribution and is not currently facing significant threats.
