Eupherusa eximia

The stripe-tailed hummingbird (Eupherusa eximia) is a species of hummingbird endemic to subtropical moist forest and adjacent clearings of Middle America, from the Gulf slope of southeastern Mexico to Panama. This medium-sized hummingbird can measure up to 10 cm (3.9 in) long, and weigh up to 4.3 g (0.15 oz). The male has metallic green upperparts that grade to bronze at the rump and tail. It sports a conspicuous rufous wing patch when the wings are folded. The underwing is mostly rufous-cinnamon. The namesake striped tail is formed by dark bronze green central rectrices and outer rectrices which have black outer webs, white inner webs and broad black tips. The female has a metallic green back but her underparts and the sides of her face are light brownish grey. On both sexes, the bill is straight and black.
