Mango Gorginegro

Un colibrí grande y llamativo de los bosques tropicales desde el sur de México hasta Argentina, los mangos gorginegros presentan un marcado dimorfismo sexual: los machos exhiben una garganta y pecho negro brillante con flancos violáceos y verdes y una llamativa cola morada, mientras que las hembras son blancas por debajo con una franja negra central. Habitan bordes de bosque, claros y jardines, donde defienden agresivamente los árboles en floración. Los machos realizan espectaculares vuelos de exhibición a la altura del dosel forestal. Catalogada como Preocupación Menor en toda su amplia área de distribución neotropical.
