Guianan Trogon
The Guianan trogon (''Trogon violaceus''), is a near passerine bird in the trogon and quetzal family Trogonidae. It is found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad, and Venezuela. Taxonomy and systematics The Guianan trogon 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 the other trogons in the genus '' Trogon'' and coined the binomial name ''Trogon violaceus''. Gmelin based his account on a description and illustration by the German botanist Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter that had been published 1765. Gmelin did not specify a type locality, but this has been designated as Suriname. The specific epithet ''violaceus'' is from Latin and means "violet-coloured". The species is now considered to be monotypic: no subspecies are recognised. The Guianan trogon was formerly named the violaceous trogon and included the gartered trogon (''T. caliga ...

Gartered Trogon
The gartered trogon (''Trogon caligatus''), also known as the northern violaceous trogon, is a bird in the family Trogonidae, the quetzals and trogons. It is found in Mexico, all of Central America, and Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Taxonomy and systematics Until the early 2000s, what are now the gartered trogon and the Amazonian trogon (''T. ramonianus'') were considered subspecies of the violaceous trogon (''T. violaceous''). The International Ornithological Committee (IOC), the Clements taxonomy, and the South American Classification Committee of the American Ornithological Society (AOS-SACC) have implemented the split making them separate species and renaming ''T. violaceous'' the Guianan trogon. However, BirdLife International's ''Handbook of the Birds of the World'' (HBW) retains them as subspecies. The classification schemes that treat the gartered trogon as a species assign three subspecies, the nominate ''T. c. caligatus'', ''T. c. sallaei'', and ''T. c. co ...
