Elliotomyia is a genus in the family of Hummingbirds.

Species

The genus contains two species:^[1]

Genus **Elliotomyia** – Stiles & Remsen, 2019 – two species
Common name	Scientific name and subspecies	Range	Size and ecology	IUCN status and estimated population
White-bellied hummingbird	Elliotomyia chionogaster (Tschudi, 1846) Two subspecies E. c. chionogaster E. c. hypoleuca	Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru	Size: Habitat: Diet:	LC
Green-and-white hummingbird	Elliotomyia viridicauda (von Berlepsch, 1883)	Peru	Size: Habitat: Diet:	LC

These species were formerly placed in the genus Amazilia. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that Amazilia was polyphyletic.^[2] In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, the white-bellied hummingbird and the green-and-white hummingbird were placed in a new genus Elliotomyia.^[1]^[3]^[4]
