The Pirre hummingbird (Goldmania bella), also somewhat misleadingly known as the rufous-cheeked hummingbird,^[3] is a species of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae.

Found in Panama and far northwestern Colombia, its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.

Taxonomy[]

The Pirre hummingbird was first described by Edward William Nelson in 1912 from specimens collected near Cana and the slopes of the Cerro Pirre in the Darién National Park in eastern Panama near the border with Colombia. Nelson coined the binomial name Goethalsia bella.^[4] A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the Pirre hummingbird was closely related to the violet-capped hummingbird in the genus Goldmania.^[5] The two species were therefore placed together in Goldmania which has priority.^[6] The species is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.^[6]
