Sephanoides fernandensis (Juan Fernandez Firecrown)

Synonyms: Trochilus fernandensis

Wikipedia Abstract

The Juan Fernández firecrown (Sephanoides fernandensis) is a hummingbird found today solely on Isla Róbinson Crusoe, one of a three-island archipelago belonging to Chile. It is non-migratory and shares the island with its smaller relative the green-backed firecrown (S. sephaniodes), which seasonally migrates to the mainland.
