The grey-streaked or grey-spotted flycatcher (Muscicapa griseisticta) breeds in the eastern Palearctic and was first described by Robert Swinhoe in 1861. It is a slender, long-winged bird 13–15 cm long, mainly grey-brown above and white below, with the breast and flanks heavily streaked grey, a narrow white wing-bar, a pale patch between bill and eye, black bill and feet, a large eye and a white eye-ring. The sexes are alike, and juveniles have white spots and dark scaling on the upperparts. (Wikipedia, general species account)
