The subspecies is the nominal race B. urubitinga urubitinga. Range: from Panama to Argentina (Blake 1977).
Figure 1. This species is not a common sight in Ceará. The photo, though blurred and underexposed, shows the characteristic tail pattern of B. urubitinga urubitinga: the proximal half of the rectrices is white, and the distal half is black, with a slim white tip. See Hilty and Brown 1986, plate IV, and Blake 1977.
