Marshall (1942) Myiochanes cinereus Lake Olomega Pairs common in arid woods & Colinas de Juncuvaran, noted especially in timber, along washes. Behavior much like our pewees. Call remarkable for flycatcher: a rolling "preeet" exactly like the call of a canary. Like our pewee, 1st to call in am & last at night. As I recall at these times it gave a call similar to the 4 syllable call of the W. wood pewee. Very doubtful for Clutata - Pairs common in balsaan groves. Often confused with Empidonax as it when it perched at middle height of trees. Noticably darker than any other Empidonaxes or Myiochanes. Appeared much smaller than "cineus.
