The three-striped flycatcher was originally described as Muscicapa trivirgata, mistakenly placing it in the Old World flycatcher family. It was later moved into genus Conopias that had been erected in 1860.

The sexes have the same plumage. Adults of the nominate subspecies C t. trivirgatus have a dusky brown crown and face with a white supercilium that begins at the lores and wraps all the way around the nape. Their upperparts are pale olive. Their wings are dusky... Wikipedia →

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Three-striped Flycatcher is recorded against all the birds logged in Anavilhanas National Park (19 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
