Tyrant-flycatchers (Tyrannidae)
Cinnamon Flycatcher (Pyrrhomyias cinnamomeus) - HBW 9, p. 353
French: Moucherolle cannelle
German: Zimttyrann
Spanish: Birro Chico
Taxonomy: M[uscipeta] cinnamomea d’Orbigny and Lafresnaye, 1837, Yungas, Bolivia.
Closely allied to Neopipo and Hirundinea. Differences among races vieillotioides, spadix and pariae appear subtle at best, and these taxa perhaps should be merged; differences between nominate and pyrrhopterus also slight, and may reflect clinal variation from N to S within Andes. Six subspecies currently recognized.

- assimilis (J. A. Allen, 1900) - N Colombia (Santa Marta).
- vieillotioides (Lafresnaye, 1848) - NW Venezuela.
