Scientific classification | |
Unrecognized taxon (fix): | Ochthoeca |
Ochthoeca is a genus of birds in the Tyrannidae family.
In recent times, ist has usually contained the following species:
- Slaty-backed Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca cinnamomeiventris
- Rufous-breasted Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca rufipectoralis
- Tumbes Tyrant, Ochthoeca salvini
- Brown-backed Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca fumicolor
- D'Orbigny's Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca oenanthoides
- Piura Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca piurae
- White-browed Chat-Tyrant, Ochthoeca leucophrys
But it has turned out that the last three, which some had considered to belong in Silvicultrix, may in fact form a distinct genus. However, they are anatomically very similar and the genetic data may to be inconsistent, so the question is not fully resolved.
