This spectacular flycatcher is locally common in riparian vegetation near open
water in the arid Southwest. As its bright colors suggest, it is a tropical bird which ranges south to Argentina. Its latin name Pyrocephalus rubinus, means "ruby-red fire head," a fitting description of the male, but unlike most flycatchers, the female is much different, being brown and white with a tinge of pink on the sides.
