Proposed species "Agyrtria microrhyncha" (Honduras, Nicaragua), known from two specimens and separated in part on basis of unusually short bill, does not merit even subspecific recognition because characters appear to be based on individual variation or juvenile, probably of nominate.

The following 2 subspecies are recognised:

• cyanocephala (Lesson, 1829)   -  Eastern and southern Mexico to eastern Honduras and north-central Nicaragua.
• chlorostephana Howell, TR, 1965   -  Mosquito Coast of eastern Honduras and north-eastern Nicaragua.
