Great-billed hermit
The great-billed hermit is a species of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae.
It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela.
Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest.
The taxonomy of this species and the long-tailed hermit is confusing. Most taxa previously consider subspecies of the latter are now considered subspecies of the former. A satisfactory taxonomic treatment of the entire P. longirostris/P. superciliosus/P. malaris group is still lacking according to some Neotropical ornithologists. Additionally, the taxon margarettae of the Atlantic Forest of eastern Brazil is sometimes considered a separate species: Margaretta's Hermit.
