Monarch-flycatchers (Monarchidae)

Cerulean Paradise-flycatcher (Eutrichomyias rowleyi) - HBW 11, p. 281

French: Tchitrec de Rowley German: Silberparadiesschnäpper Spanish: Monarca de Rowley
Other common names: Rowley’s Flycatcher, Sangihe Flycatcher

Taxonomy: Zeocephus rowleyi A. B. Meyer, 1878, Tabukan, Sangihe, north of Sulawesi.
Morphology, vocalizations and behaviour suggest close affinities to both Hypothymis and Terpsiphone; it has been suggested that it may be better merged with, especially, the latter of those two genera. No supporting molecular-genetic evidence. Monotypic.

Distribution: Sangihe I, N of Sulawesi.
