Subspecies
Previously considered conspecific with Zimmer's Tody-tyrant (Hemitriccus minimus). Subspecies pallens possibly a separate species. Nominate subspecies and snethlageae difficult to differentiate, intergrade in central Amazonian Brazil (Pará) and possibly better merged.
The following 3 subspecies are recognised:
pallens (Todd, 1925) - West-central Brazil on both sides of Amazon, from Amazonas (very near Peruvian border) east to western banks of R Negro and R Madeira.
snethlageae (Snethlage, EH, 1937) - Central Amazonian Brazil (from right bank of R Madeira east to right bank of R Tapajós, south to northern Rondônia and north-western Mato Grosso) and north-eastern Bolivia (eastern Beni, Santa Cruz).
minor (Snethlage, 1907) - Eastern Amazonian Brazil in central Pará (vicinity of lower R Xingú and R Tocantins).
