Subspecies
No subspecies.
Close relationship with Dusky-capped Flycatcher (Myiarchus tuberculifer) (especially of subspecies platyrhynchus) has long been acknowledged. In phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA, this species found to be most closely related to subspecies platyrhynchus, nigricapillus and one Ecuadorean sample (identified as atriceps) of that species. Responds to playback of Dusky-capped Flycatcher (Myiarchus tuberculifer) voice, but platyrhynchus does not respond to present species. This species should be included in the required taxonomic revision of Dusky-capped Flycatcher (Myiarchus tuberculifer).
