The Story
-
The Bahama woodstar (Calliphlox evelynae) is a species of hummingbird endemic to the Caribbean, including the Bahama and
Turks and Caicos islands
. It is named the "Hummer" by locals due to a distinct humming sound it makes while feeding. The Bahama woodstar is a small hummingbird, growing to be only about 8-9.5 cm in length. These birds weigh around 2.4-3 grams. Their backs are green and gold, with olive-buff under parts, and flanks fading into white (males) or cinnamon (females). Wings are brown and their tails appear a blackish-purple. Males have a fork-shaped tail while females display a more rounded tail with wider feathers. Males have bright purple iridescent gorgets lined with a white stripe, which dull out as breeding season ends. Females do not have the purple throat or white stripe. Both males and females have black, slightly curved bills and black feet.
Bahama Woodstars are found in many different habitats such as gardens, Scrubland, both secondary growth and dry lowland, the edges of
Tropical
Evergreen
Forests
and
Pine
Forests
. They tend not to migrate very far from these habitats being a year-round species. Although they may inhabit the same area as other Woodstars, they are not very social and will often become aggressive towards other birds.
Hummingbirds are the second most abundant group of avian families, having approximately 338 different recognized species. Due to its recent divergence between lineages, the many clades within this group are constantly under close scrutiny and rearrangement. The Bahama Woodstar in particular belongs to the "Bee Clade", the youngest and most extensively diversifying clade. A characteristic of this clade is the fact that males use their tails to make sounds. Relationships between species and genera of this clade are still being re-evaluated.
The Bahama Woodstar is one of the species which has been recently re-evaluated, having used to contain two subspecies of woodstars: Calliphlox evelynae evelynae and Calliphlox evelynae lyura also known as the Inagua woodstar. However, hummingbird species can be separated depending on morphological differences in tail shape and presence or absence of iridescent feathers, both known to play a role in sexual selection. For this reason, the Inagua woodstar, formerly considered a subspecies, is now a species in itself. It has a fully iridescent crown and a more lyre-shaped tail than the Bahama woodstar.
