The Stolid Flycatcher is a medium-sized tyrant flycatcher native to the Caribbean. It is characterized by its relatively subdued plumage and characteristic calls.
Where to spot
Found in Hispaniola (Dominican Republic and Haiti), Jamaica, and some smaller surrounding islands. Inhabits woodlands, forest edges, and cultivated areas.
How to spot
Search for it perched in the mid-story of trees and shrubs. Its rather plain plumage (grayish-brown upperparts, pale throat, yellowish belly, rufous in wings/tail) requires attention to subtle differences and listening for its calls to distinguish it.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during early morning and late afternoon foraging bouts.

The 'stolid' in its name likely refers to its somewhat placid or unexcitable demeanor compared to some other more active flycatchers.
