Subspecies
In the past, distinctive subspecies boliviana and similis have together been treated as forming a separate species. In addition, although three subspecies described from Pacific slope in Colombia and Ecuador on basis of differences in underpart pattern and bill color, considerable variation exists among all that region's populations, any one of which can span virtually entire range of variation in these characters. Hence, mindoensis and possibly zarumae perhaps better considered as synonyms of ochraceiventris.
The following 8 subspecies are recognised:
costaricensis Lawrence, 1866 - Costa Rica and western Panama (east to Veraguas).
