Subspecies
Cypseloides fumigatus (Sibley and Monroe 1990, 1993) was provisionally split into Sooty Swift (Cypseloides fumigatus) and Rothschild's Swift (Cypseloides rothschildi) by Stotz et al. (1996) but this treatment has not been adopted, following SACC (2005).

Forms superspecies with Black Swift (Cypseloides niger), White-chested Swift (Cypseloides lemosi) and Rothschild's Swift (Cypseloides rothschildi). Sometimes considered conspecific with Rothschild's Swift (Cypseloides rothschildi), and possibly White-chinned Swift (Cypseloides cryptus).

No subspecies.
