The varzea schiffornis (Schiffornis major), also known as the várzea mourner or greater schiffornis, is a species of bird that belongs to Tityridae family. It has traditionally been placed in the manakin family, but evidence strongly suggest that it is better placed in Tityridae,[2] where it is now classified by SACC.
It is found in most western regions of the Amazon Basin and Amazonian Bolivia, Brazil , Colombia, Ecuador, Peru; also regions of Venezuela. It mainly occurs in várzea.
