Examples of "urochroa"
The white-tailed hillstar ("
Urochroa
bougueri") is not closely related.
The white-tailed hillstar ("
Urochroa
bougueri") is a species of hummingbird in the Trochilidae family, and the only member of the genus
Urochroa
. It is found in humid montane forest in southern Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru. It has two subspecies, the nominate on the west Andean slope, and "leucura" on the east Andean slope. The two differ strongly, most conspicuously in that the former has a broad orange malar, which the latter lacks. Both have a straight black bill, greenish upperparts, a blue throat, grey belly, and extensive white to the tail. Although sharing the name hillstar with the members of the genus "Oreotrochilus", they are quite different and not closely related.
