Buff-breasted Sabrewing (Campylopterus duidae)
About the Buff-breasted Sabrewing
The buff-breasted sabrewing (Campylopterus duidae), or sometimes Duida sabrewing, is a species of hummingbird in the "emeralds", tribe Trochilini of subfamily Trochilinae. It is found in Brazil and Venezuela. Some authors have placed the buff-breasted sabrewing by itself in genus Loxopterus. It has also been treated as conspecific with the rufous-breasted sabrewing (C. hyperythrus), as forming a superspecies with it, or as the two being sister species. Of the major worldwide taxonomic systems, none have adopted the first three treatments and only the Clements taxonomy has adopted the last. The buff-breasted sabrewing has two subspecies, the nominate C. d. duidae and C. d. guaiquinimae.
