Saucerottia
''Saucerottia'' is a genus of birds in the family Trochilidae, or hummingbirds. Species The species now placed in this genus were formerly placed in ''Amazilia''. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the genus ''Amazilia'' was polyphyletic. In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, these species were placed in the resurrected genus ''Saucerottia''. The genus had been introduced in 1850 by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte with the steely-vented hummingbird as the type species. The genus name is from the specific epithet ''saucerrottei'' for the steely-vented hummingbird. The epithet was coined in 1846 by Adolphe Delattre and Jules Bourcier to honour the French physician and ornithologist Antoine Constant Saucerotte. The genus contains eleven species: *Azure-crowned hummingbird, ''Saucerottia cyanocephala'' *Blue-vented hummingbird, ''Saucerottia hoffmanni'' *Berylline hummingbird, ''Saucerottia beryllina'' *Blue-tailed humm ...

Blue-vented Hummingbird
The blue-vented hummingbird (''Saucerottia hoffmanni'') is a species of hummingbird in the "emeralds", tribe Trochilini of subfamily Trochilinae. It is found in Costa Rica and Nicaragua. Taxonomy and systematics The blue-vented hummingbird was formerly placed in the genus ''Amazilia'' as a subspecies of the steely-vented hummingbird (then ''Amazilia saucerottei'', now ''Saucerottia saucerottei''). A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the genus ''Amazilia'' was polyphyletic. In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, most taxonomic systems accepted the blue-vented hummingbird as a separate species and moved it to the resurrected genus ''Saucerottia''.Clements, J.

Copper-rumped Hummingbird
The copper-rumped hummingbird (''Saucerottia tobaci'') is a species of hummingbird in the "emeralds", tribe Trochilini of subfamily Trochilinae. It is found in Tobago, Trinidad, Venezuela, and possibly Grenada. Taxonomy and systematics The copper-rumped hummingbird was formally described in 1788 by the German naturalist Johann Friedrich Gmelin in his revised and expanded edition of Carl Linnaeus's ''Systema Naturae''. He placed it with all the other hummingbirds in the genus ''Trochilus'' and coined the binomial name ''Trochilus tobaci''. Gmelin based his description on the "Tobago Humming-Bird" that had been described in 1782 by the English ornithologist John Latham in his ''A General Synopsis of Birds''. The copper-rumped hummingbird was formerly placed in the genus ''Amazilia''. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the genus ''Amazilia'' was polyphyletic. In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, the copper-rumped hummingbird was m ...
