The olive-faced flatbill or olive-faced flycatcher (Tolmomyias viridiceps) is a species of bird in the tyrant flycatcher family Tyrannidae. It is found in riparian woodland and at the forest edge in western Amazonia.
The olive-faced flatbill was described by the English ornithologists Philip Sclater and Osbert Salvin in 1873 from a specimen collected in Pebas, Peru. They coined the binomial name Rhynchocyclus viridiceps. [2] It was formerly treated as a subspecies of the ochre-lored flatbill (Tolmomyias flaviventris) but is now considered as a separate species based primarily on its very different vocalization.

The ochre-lored flatbill or yellow-breasted flycatcher, is a passerine bird in the tyrant flycatcher family. It is found in South America, ranging from Colombia and Venezuela south to Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil, and on both Trinidad and Tobago. There are significant variations in its voice and plumage, with western birds duller and more olive, and eastern and northern birds brighter and more ochre-yellow. The two are sometimes considered separate species, the western olive-faced flatbill, T. viridiceps, and the eastern and northern ochre-lored flatbill, T. flaviventris.

The grey-crowned flatbill or grey-crowned flycatcher is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in humid forest in the Amazon and Atlantic Forest in South America. It closely resembles the yellow-margined and yellow-olive flatbills, but its lower mandible is dark with a pale base. It is a fairly common bird with a wide range and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated it as "least concern".
The yellow-olive flatbill or yellow-olive flycatcher is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in tropical and subtopical forest and woodland in Central and South America, but over its range there are significant variations in plumage, iris colour and voice, leading to speculations that more than one species is involved. Its plumage is overall greenish-yellow, the lores are whitish, the crown is often greyish and some subspecies have a dusky patch on the auriculars. The flat bill is black above and pale pinkish or greyish below; similar to the yellow-margined flatbill, but unlike the grey-crowned flatbill.
The orange-eyed flatbill or orange-eyed flycatcher is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in the Amazon in south-eastern Colombia, eastern Ecuador, and north-eastern Peru. First recognized as a species due to its distinct voice, it was only described in 1997; the binomial commemorates the American ornithologist Melvin Alvah Traylor Jr. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated the conservation status of this species as being of "least concern".
