638 BIRDS OF THE REPUBLIC OF PANAMA' — PART 4 



The Cattle Tyrant is known in Panama from a single sighting at the 

 gold mine clearing at Cana, Darien, on June 18, 1981, by Paul Scharf, 

 Gary L. Vaucher, and Gordon B. Small (Toucan, vol. 8, no. 4, 1981, 

 p. 2) . The bird was perched on top of a leaf of a plantain tree in the 

 manner typical of the species in South America. 



The normal range of this species is northern and eastern Colombia, 

 Venezuela, and Brazil, south to Bolivia, northern Argentina, Para- 

 guay, and Uruguay. The race flavigularis is found as close to Panama 

 as the lower Rio Sinu Valley in northwestern Colombia.]
