Subspecies: - The pure Spotted have greenish back here, why these birds don't look anything like a normal Spotted at all. The white in the black breast and the rufous on top of the head pertain to the Collared heritage. A well-known hybrid zone between the two here in eastern Michaocán. The subspecies involved are macronyx of Spotted, and nigriscens of Collared. Hybrid |
