Puffbird
The puffbirds and their relatives in the near passerine family Bucconidae are tropical tree-dwelling insectivorous birds that are found from South America up to Mexico. Together with their closest relatives, the jacamars, they form a divergent lineage within the order Piciformes, though the two families are sometimes elevated to a separate order Galbuliformes. Lacking the iridescent colours of the jacamars, puffbirds are mainly brown, rufous or grey, with large heads, large eyes, and flattened bills with a hooked tip. Their loose, abundant plumage and short tails makes them look stout and puffy, giving rise to the English name of the family. The species range in size from the rufous-capped nunlet, at and , to the white-necked puffbird, at up to and . Taxonomy and naming Puffbirds get their common name from their fluffy plumage. In Spanish, they have been nicknamed ''bobo'' ("dummy") from their propensity to sit motionless waiting for prey. American naturalist Thomas Horsfield de ...

Gray-cheeked Nunlet
The grey-cheeked nunlet (''Nonnula frontalis'') is a species of near-passerine bird in the family Bucconidae, the puffbirds, nunlets, and nunbirds. It is found in Colombia and Panama. Taxonomy and systematics The grey-cheeked nunlet was first described by P.L. Sclater in 1854 in Colombia. Three subspecies are generally recognized, the nominate ''N. f. frontalis'', ''N. f. stulta'', and ''N. f. pallescens''. The nominate has been suggested to constitute more than one taxon based on differences in coloration observed in specimens. ''N. f. pallescens'' has occasionally been suggested to be a subspecies of the rufous-capped nunlet (''N. ruficapilla'') of southern Amazonia. The grey-cheeked nunlet forms a superspecies with the rufous-capped nunlet and the chestnut-headed nunlet (''N. amaurocephala''), which is restricted to a small area in northwest Brazil. It has been suggested to be conspecific with the rufous-capped nunlet and also with the brown nunlet (''N. brunnea'').Cl ...
