The white-breasted hawk (Accipiter chionogaster) is a small hawk found from southern Mexico to Nicaragua.It is usually considered a subspecies of the sharp-shinned hawk by most taxonomists, including the American Ornithological Society, but the taxonomy is far from resolved, with some authorities considering the southern taxa to represent three separate species: white-breasted hawk (A ...
The taxonomy is far from resolved, with some authorities considering the southern taxa to represent three separate species: white-breasted hawk (A. chionogaster), plain-breasted hawk (A. ventralis), and rufous-thighed hawk (A. erythronemius). [3] The American Ornithological Society and some other checklists keep all four species conspecific. [4]

Rather than subsuming these genera into an expanded Accipiter, species were moved from Accipiter to the resurrected genera Aerospiza, Tachyspiza and Astur. [ 3 ] The genus level cladogram of the Accipitrinae shown below is based on a molecular phylogenetic study of the Accipitridae by Therese Catanach and collaborators that was published in ...
In this list of birds by common name 11,278 extant and recently extinct (since 1500) bird species are recognised. [1] Species marked with a "†" are extinct. Contents
These species were formerly placed in the genus Amazilia.A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that Amazilia was polyphyletic. [2] In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, the white-bellied hummingbird and the green-and-white hummingbird were placed in a new genus Elliotomyia.
In March, a mother was horrified to find a pedophile symbol on a toy she bought for her daughter. Although the symbol was not intentionally placed on the toy by the company who manufactured the ...
Accipiter (/ æ k ˈ s ɪ p ə d ə r /) is a genus of birds of prey in the family Accipitridae. Most species are called sparrowhawks, but there are many sparrowhawks in other genera too, such as Tachyspiza. These birds are slender with short, broad, rounded wings and a long tail which helps them maneuver in flight.
