Vagrant to Jamaica, St Pierre and Miquelon (P).

May form superspecies with Puerto Rican Nightjar (Antrostomus noctitherus), with which formerly considered conspecific. Differences in vocalizations suggest that Central American subspecies may be better split from nominate, as Mexican Whip-poor-will (Antrostomus arizonae).

No subspecies.
