Black-and-white Shrike-flycatcher © oiseaux.net

Vagrant to Gambia.

Some authors separate birds from Angola as subspecies pallidiventris, birds from Uganda as femininus, those from Kenya and eastern Tanzania as changamwensis, and those from Zimbabwe, Malawi and Mozambique as clarens, on basis mainly of paler and more spotted plumage (of female and immature male). However, these characteristics are variable and naming of geographical subspecies considered unwarranted.

The following 3 subspecies are recognised:

• musicus (Vieillot, 1818)   -  Western, central, south-eastern.
• changamwensis van Someren, 1919   -  Kenya to eastern Tanzania.
• clarens Clancey, 1966   -  Southern Malawi to eastern Zimbabwe and Mozambique.
