"The series of this genus in the U. S. Nat. Mus. shows that there are 

 three geographical forms of the rufous-tailed flycatcher, from the islands 

 of Basilan, Mindanao, and Samar respectively. 



"Compared with the Samar and Mindanao fonns the Basilan form, 

 Rhinomyias ruficauda ruficauda, has the under parts whiter, middle of 

 chest grayer, sides of chest and flanks a grayer brown, with entire side of 

 head slate-gray. 



"R. mindanensis and samarensis both have brown cheeks and differ 

 from each other in size the Mindanao form being larger. The upper 

 surfaces are of a lighter, more olivaceous, and less rufescent color."
