Common name | Scientific name and subspecies | Range | Size and ecology | IUCN status and estimated population |
---|---|---|---|---|
Violet-capped hummingbird | Goldmania violiceps Nelson, 1911 | Costa Rica and Panama![]() | Size: Habitat: Diet: | NT |
Pirre hummingbird | Goldmania bella (Nelson, 1912) | Panama and far northwestern Colombia![]() | Size: Habitat: Diet: | NT |
The Pirre hummingbird was formerly placed in the monospecific genus Goethalsia. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the Pirre hummingbird was closely related to the violet-capped hummingbird in the genus Goldmania. [3] The two species were therefore placed together in Goldmania which has priority. [2]
