Tree Swallow © animals695.wordpress.com

Vagrant to Ecuador, Greenland, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom.

This species (and, by extension, Tumbes Swallow (Tachycineta stolzmanni)), along with Mangrove Swallow (Tachycineta albilinea), White-winged Swallow (Tachycineta albiventer), White-rumped Swallow (Tachycineta leucorrhoa) and Chilean Swallow (Tachycineta meyeni), sometimes placed in separate genus Iridoprocne, but DNA studies indicate close relationship of these taxa with clade consisting of Violet-green Swallow (Tachycineta thalassina), Golden Swallow (Tachycineta euchrysea) and Bahama Swallow (Tachycineta cyaneoviridis), and support placement of all in a single genus. Forms a superspecies with Tumbes Swallow (Tachycineta stolzmanni) and White-winged Swallow (Tachycineta albiventer).

There is one record of hybridization with Cliff Swallow (Petrochelidon pyrrhonota).
