The Yungas tyrannulet (Phyllomyias weedeni) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is, as suggested by its common name, restricted to humid and semi-humid forest in the Yungas of north-western Bolivia and far south-eastern Peru. Although discovered in the early 1990s, it was only formally described in 2008.
The Yungas tyrannulet resembles the planalto tyrannulet, but has a different voice. Being recently described it has not yet been rated by BirdLife International; however, it has been suggested it should be considered vulnerable, because it occurs in low densities within a small range that is subjected to extensive habitat destruction.
The white-banded tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae.
The mouse-colored tyrannulet is a species of bird in the tyrant flycatcher family Tyrannidae. It occurs in a wide range of scrubby and wooded habitats in tropical and subtropical South America, being absent from the southernmost part of the continent, the high Andes and dense rainforest. It also occurs in Panama and Costa Rica. It is generally common, but its small size and dull plumage results in it often being overlooked – or at least not identified, as it resembles several other tyrant flycatchers.
The rough-legged tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. The white-fronted tyrannulet was formerly considered a subspecies.
The ashy-headed tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.
The planalto tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is widespread in wooded habitats of eastern Brazil, extreme north-eastern Bolivia, eastern Paraguay, and far north-eastern Argentina. It is generally common, and consequently rated as least concern by BirdLife International and IUCN. There are three relatively distinctive subspecies, differing in measurements, plumage and voice, and it is possible they are better regarded as separate species. It can be separated from other members of its genus found in its range by the combination of a greyish-tinged forecrown and an all-black bill.
The sooty-headed tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela.
The grey-capped tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is endemic to Brazil.
The black-capped tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
The plumbeous-crowned tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in the countries of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montanes.
Reiser's tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in central Brazil and northern Paraguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
Sclater's tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, and Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest.
Urich's tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is endemic to Venezuela. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The tawny-rumped tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest.
The greenish tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
The cinnamon-faced tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in the Yungas of Peru and Bolivia. First described in 1997, it was named in honor of Theodore A. Parker III.
The Bolivian tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Bolivia and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
The slender-footed tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers. It is found in humid forests of the west Amazon Basin in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Brazil. Until recently, it included the Guianan tyrannulet as a subspecies.
The Peruvian tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. As traditionally defined, it is endemic to Peru, but recent genetic evidence suggests it should include the taxon flavidifrons as a subspecies, in which case the range of the Peruvian tyrannulet extends into far southern Ecuador. Alternatively, flavidifrons is sometimes considered a separate species, the Loja tyrannulet, but it is not closely related to the golden-faced tyrannulet as previously believed.
The rufous twistwing is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It was described as a new species in 2007.
The white-fronted tyrannulet is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.
