Proposed subspecies olivascens (from south-central Peru) evidently not diagnosable, probably represents clinal variation within latter (specimens from south-western Amazonia less reddish on average than those farther north). Critical revision of subspecies and their boundaries badly needed.

The following 7 subspecies are recognised:

• brunneus Sclater, PL, 1857   -  Western Amazonia from south-eastern Colombia (southern from western Meta and Vaupés) and southern Venezuela south to eastern Ecuador, eastern Peru, western Brazil (western Amazonas, Acre, Rondônia) and northern Bolivia (Pando, north-western La Paz).
• caudacutus (Vieillot, 1816)   -  The Guianas.
• insignis Zimmer, JT, 1934   -  Northern Brazil north of R Amazon (north-western Pará; probably more widespread).
• pallidus Zimmer, JT, 1934   -  Central Brazil south of R Amazon (eastern from at least R Madeira to western Maranhío).
• umbretta (Lichtenstein, MHK, 1823)   -  Coastal eastern Brazil (Alagoas south to Espí­rito Santo).
• caligineus Pinto, 1954   -  Eastern Brazil.
• olivascens Cabanis, 1873   -  Eastern Peru (Ayacucho) to extreme northern Bolivia (Pando).
