Campylopterus hemileucurus

 

Jennifer Smith
This species is fairly common throughout much of our region, where its size and distinctive appearance make it easy to spot. The distribution in Howell and Webb includes most of the central highland and mid-elevation regions of northern Central America, excluding most of the coastal and lowland regions and also the highest areas in western Guatemala. All of my sightings fall within their range, except that I have seen them in Pico Bonito, which is on the north coast of Honduras.
