Ramphotrigon is a genus of tyrant flycatchers in the family Tyrannidae.
Species

Established in 1872 by George Robert Gray, it contains four species:[1]

Image	Common Name	Scientific name	Distribution
	Large-headed flatbill	Ramphotrigon megacephalum	Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela.
	Flammulated flycatcher	Ramphotrigon flammulatum	south and southwest Mexico
	Rufous-tailed flatbill	Ramphotrigon ruficauda	Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela
	Dusky-tailed flatbill	Ramphotrigon fuscicauda	Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.

The name Ramphotrigon is a combination of the Greek words rhamphos, meaning "bill" and trigonōn, meaning "triangle".[2]
