Sumba Brown Flycatcher (Muscicapa segregata) - HBW 11, p. 117

French: Gobemouche de Sumba German: Sumbaschnäpper Spanish: Papamoscas de la Sumba
Other common names: Sumba Flycatcher

Taxonomy: Alseonax latirostris segregata Siebers, 1928, Karuni, Laora, western Sumba, Lesser Sundas.
Probably forms a superspecies with M. dauurica and M. randi; all have previously been considered conspecific, but differences exhibited by present species in morphology and vocal characters, and its sedentary nature on one island, suggest that speciation level has been attained. Monotypic.

Distribution: Sumba, in Lesser Sundas.
