The variegated flycatcher (Empidonomus varius) is a species of
Tyrannidae. With the crowned slaty flycatcher being moved to its own genus
, this is now the only species remaining in Empidonomus.
It is found in
Guianas
; it is a vagrant to more northwestern parts of the continent.
Accidental in North America north of Mexico, there have been only ten records: Maine (1977[2]), Tennessee (1984[3]), Ontario (1993,[4] 2020[5]), Washington (2008[6]), Florida (2013,[7] 2015,[8] 2021[9]), Texas (2016[10]), and Michigan (2022[11]).
It is similar to the smaller piratic flycatcher and larger sulphur-bellied flycatcher.
