Author's comments:
La subespecie M. bonariensis occidentalis se encuentra el suroeste de Ecuador y en la costa peruana hasta el departamento de Lima. La hembra de M. bonariensis occidentalis es marcadamente diferente del macho: marrón el pecho ligeramente rayado y con un superciliar blanquecino. El inmaduro es parecido a la hembra, pero con un color más oliváceo y con rayas más marcadas. Machos inmaduros están manchados con negro durante el cambio al plumaje de adulto.
