Notwith- standing Stotz's (1990) comments that Urich's Tyrannulet is more closely related to Reiser's than to the Greenish Tyrannulet, I suggest that to propose phylogenetic relationships within this group based only on plumage and morphometric characters is premature, and that DNA or alloenzyme data are required in this particular case. In further studies, one should pay more attention to the possible phytogenetic relationships of Urich's, Reiser's and Greenish.
