Biology:Goldmania
From HandWiki
Goldmania is a genus in the family of Hummingbirds, and consists of 2 species.
Species
The two species are:[1]
| 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.[2] The two species were therefore placed together in Goldmania which has priority.[1]
