<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="chlorostilbon-swainsonii"></dinofyi-dinosaur>An extinct emerald hummingbird from Hispaniola, Chlorostilbon swainsonii is known from subfossil bones recovered in Haiti. Named in honor of ornithologist William Swainson, this small nectarivore inhabited Caribbean island forests. Its extinction likely followed the arrival of humans and associated ecosystem changes on Hispaniola.
