标题：NESTS AND EGGS OF OLIVE-CHESTED FLYCATCHER (MYIOPHOBUS CRYPTOXANTHUS) IN EASTERN ECUADOR, WITH COMMENTS ON BREEDING OF BRAN-COLORED FLYCATCHER (M. FASCIATUS) IN WESTERN ECUADOR
摘要：We provide breeding information for Olive-chested Flycatcher ( Myiophobus cryptoxanthus ) and Bran-colored Flycatcher (M. fasciatus) from Ecuador . For M. cryptoxanthus we report a mean clutch size of 2.3 eggs and mean egg measurements of 17.3 x 13.1 mm . Nests were mossy cups slung between horizontal forks in low shrubs in disturbed areas. For M. fasciatus we report a mean clutch size of 1.9 eggs and mean egg measurements of 17.5 x 12.7 mm . Eggs were laid 48 hours apart and were incubated for 17 days before hatching. Nests were similar to those of M. cryptoxanthus , and nests of both species differed from nests of forest dwelling congeners.
