NOTES
To elaborate our model we removed uncertain localities such as those localities with no coordinates and all records with coordinates laying down in sites with estimated elevations below 2,000 m and above 3,300 m.
The habitat suitability model generated in Maxent showed areas suitable in climatic terms for this species in the Western Andes. Also some extralimital areas further north than the known range in the Central and Eastern Andes. Those areas are not known to be occupied by the species and were excluded from the potential distribution map of this hummingbird.
Assuming that the distribution of the species may have filled the complete climatic model generated, its distribution today in remnants of forest is about 12,349 km2, which corresponds to a loss of 71 % of its potential original distribution due to deforestation. Nonetheless, this species favours edges, secondary vegetation and gardens and therefore possibly deforestation has not negatively affected greatly its populations.
