TITYRAS - TITYRIDAE
This is a newly-erected family, and I still need to transfer some species from other galleries into it. |
| Masked
Tityra Tityra semifasciata semifasciata Serra dos Carajás, Pará state, Brazil. Male. (D3) |
 |
| Cinereous Mourner Laniocera hypopyrra Mitú, Vaupés department, Colombia. A poor photo under very challenging conditions, but it is a hard species to get. The photo does show the distinctive buffy tips to the wing coverts and tail. It's found throughout the Amazon and Guianan regions, and there is an isolated population in the Atlantic Rainforest of eastern Brazil. (S6) |
