         belong to the family Tyrannid[ae], as the kingbird,
         pewee, crested flycatcher (Myiarchus crinitus), and
         the vermilion flycatcher or churinche (Pyrocephalus
         rubineus). Certain American flycatching warblers of
         the family Sylvicolid[ae] are also called
         flycatchers, as the Canadian flycatcher (Sylvania
         Canadensis), and the hooded flycatcher (S. mitrata).
