Abstract

Lophornis magnificus (Vieillot, 1817) (Aves, Trochilidae) is a hummingbird species endemic to Brazil. Although some maps include the state of Santa Catarina, southern Brazil, within the range of this species, no previous documented records exist. Here, we report six records and material documentation of the occurrence of L. magnificus in Santa Catarina.
