The black-throated mango (Anthracothorax nigricollis) is a species in subfamily Polytminae of the hummingbird family Trochilidae.

[6] As of early 2023, worldwide taxonomic systems assign two subspecies to it, the nominate A. n. nigricollis (Vieillot, 1817) and A. n. iridescens (Gould, 1861).

Nominate females have metallic green on the crown, nape, and upperparts without the male's bronzy tone.

Juveniles are somewhat similar to adult females but have a white chin, throat, and breast with a thin black central line.

Juvenile females have some rusty or buff beside the white of the underparts, green undertail coverts, and a mostly dull carmine underside of the tail.

[3][7][6] The black-throated mango inhabits a variety of landscapes in the lowland tropics, most of them semi-open to open.

[6] The black-throated mango is generally sedentary though some populations apparently make some movements seasonally or in response to the availability of flowering plants.

In addition to nectar, the species feeds on insects by hawking, mostly from a high perch but also much less frequently low down such as along roads or streams.

The female builds a cup nest of soft plant material such as seed down and rootlets with lichen on the outside, all bound together with spider silk.

[6][10] A black-throated mango nest in Cuyabeno Faunistic Reserve, Ecuador was in a tree inhabited by Pseudomyrmex stinging ants.
