Hummingbirds (Trochilidae)

Black-throated Mango (Anthracothorax nigricollis) - HBW 5, p. 559

French: Mango à cravate noire German: Schwarzbrust-Mangokolibri Spanish: Mango Gorginegro

Taxonomy: Trochilus nigricollis Vieillot, 1817, Brazil.
Forms superspecies with A. prevostii and A. veraguensis, and probably also A. viridigula. Very closely related to A. prevostii, and occasionally regarded as conspecific, the two evidently replacing each other geographically, with at most very local sympatry in N Venezuela, SW Colombia and perhaps elsewhere; A. p. iridescens has alternatively been attributed to present species. Monotypic.

Distribution: W Panama and Colombia E to Trinidad and Tobago and the Guianas, and S to Peru, E Bolivia, Paraguay, NE Argentina and S Brazil.
