Why it matters
The Great Jacamar is distinguished from its relatives by its notably broad wings and pointed tail, features that assist its agile, darting flight through the canopy. As the sole member of its genus, *Jacamerops aureus* is a prized observation for bird enthusiasts due to its striking iridescent plumage and its preference for the deep, undisturbed rainforests of the Neotropics.
