Abstract

Crowned Slaty Flycatcher Empidonomus aurantioatrocristatus is an austral migrant that winters in western Amazonia. In this note, I present the first record west of the Ecuadorian Andes. The individual observed was first-year by plumage, and this record correspond to an accidental occurrence due to date and location. Additionally, I discuss other out-of-range and out-of-season records of this species.
