Abstract
Summary. Mexican Woodnymph Thalurania ridgwayi was long included in the genus Thalurania. A previously published molecular phylogenetic study found that this species is in fact sister to the genus Eupherusa. We discuss whether ridgwayi is better lumped with Eupherusa or placed in a different genus, and consider that the latter arrangement best reflects the multiple morphological differences between ridgwayi and Eupherusa. Consequently, we describe a new genus for ridgwayi.
