Rhinomyias View in CoL flycatchers

Both syntypes of Muscicapa infuscata Blyth, 1870 , are representatives of a flycatcher currently known as Rhinomyias umbratilis ( Strickland, 1849) (see Finsch 1901a, b; Robinson & Kinnear 1928; Dickinson et al. 2002). The species is considered monotypic ( Watson et al. 1986; Dickinson 2003; Clement 2006a). Muscicapa infuscata Blyth, 1870 is thus a junior subjective synonym of Trichostoma (= Rhinomyias ) umbratile Strickland, 1849 .
