Puerto Rican Flycatcher (Myiarchus antillarum)

Endemic to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, a rather small Myiarchus with white underparts. Formerly lumped with similar Stolid Flycatcher of Jamaica and Hispaniola but split in 1998 based on its vocalizations and appearance. Note faint reddish in the primaries. This genus is notorious for difficult identifications, but this one safely identified by range.
