The taxon was described as full species Pyrocephalus dubius by John Gould in 1838. The same threats that led to the San Cristóbal flycatcher's extinction, including invasive species such as rats, threaten the Darwin's flycatcher today. Populations on the islands of Santa Cruz, Fernandina, Rabida and Isabela. It lives in humid forests and shrubland. They have an average lifespan of 5 years.
