The Atlas pied flycatcher or Atlas flycatcher (Ficedula speculigera) is a bird in an Old World flycatcher family, one of the four species of Western Palearctic black-and-white flycatchers; it is endemic as a breeding species to North-west Africa.[1]
It was formerly regarded as a race of European pied flycatcher, but Sætre et al. (2001) recommended that it is regarded as a species in its own right.[2] The bird has large white patches on its wing and forehead.[1] Identification is also covered in Etherington and Small (2003)[3] and van den Berg et al. (2006).[4]
