The Mango (Lampornis Mango), John Gould This familiar species of Humming Bird was not only known to Linneus, but to Ray, Willoughby, Marcgrave, and most of the older authors, and is in fact one of those with which Europeans first became acquainted; nevertheless, much confusion exists with regard to its synonymy, which I believe is principally owing to a nearly allied species, the Lampornis porphyrurus of Jamaica, having been confounded with it. This illustration has been restored to its original vibrancy by enhancing colors and removing unwanted marks. A monograph of the Trochilidæ, or family of humming-birds was published between 1849 and 1887 by English ornithologist John Gould. This monumental work depicts and describes all the known species of hummingbirds at the time - comprising 418 lithographic plates and information on 537 species."
