NOTES ON THE LIFE HISTORY OF THE RUSTY-MARGINED FLYCATCHER IN SURINAM

Rusty-margined Flycatcher (Myiozetetes cayanensis) Science Article 2

abstract

IN Surinam the Rusty-margined Flycatcher (Myiozetetes cayane.ensis) is one of the commonest birds. For a general description, its habitat and breeding habits the reader is referred to my ‘Birds of Surinam’ (Haver- Schmidt, 1968). Two life-histories have been published, a short one by Skutch (1960) from Barro Colorado in Panama and an extensive one by de Carvalho (1960) from Brazil. My records from Surinam corroborate the observations by both authors and give some additional details of its life history.
