Veraguan mango

The Veraguan mango (Anthracothorax veraguensis) is a species of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae.

[3] It was considered conspecific with the Green-breasted Mango (Anthracothorax prevostii) but was separated due to morphological and geographical differences in 1995.

Until recently it was considered endemic to Panama, but has now been sighted in the southern Pacific lowlands of Costa Rica.

[4] It was described as its own species, Anthracothorax veraguensis due to morphological differences such as the lack of black plumage on its underside.

An analysis of the Trochilidae found that within the genus Anthracothorax, A. prevostii and A. veraguensis are indeed sister species.
