Heliothryx is a genus of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae. The genus is assigned to the subfamily Polytminae which is sometimes referred to by the informal name "mangoes".

Taxonomy[edit]

The genus Heliothryx was introduced in 1831 by the German zoologist Friedrich Boie.[1] Boie did not specify the type species but this was designated as the black-eared fairy by George Robert Gray in 1840.[2][3] The genus name combines the Ancient Greek hēlios meaning "sun" with thrix meaning "hair".[4]

The genus contains the following two species:[5]
