Least ConcernThe Plain-capped Ground-Tyrant is an open-country tyrant flycatcher of Andean forests, scrub, and highland valleys of western South America. It watches from rocks, shrubs, fences, or bare ground and drops onto insects or sallies into the air. It is currently assessed as Least Concern, though intact habitat, connected woodland, and healthy insect populations remain important locally.
