Crowned Woodnymph

Um beija-flor deslumbrantemente colorido das florestas tropicais da América Central e norte da América do Sul, os machos da ninfa-coroada exibem uma coroa púrpura cintilante e babeiro peitoral transitando para verde reluzente no peito inferior, com uma cauda profundamente bifurcada de cor violeta-azul. Habitam florestas húmidas de terras baixas e encostas desde a Guatemala até ao Equador em altitudes até 1.400 metros.
