Classification

Class
Aves

The sapayoa or broad-billed sapayoa (Sapayoa aenigma) is a suboscine passerine bird found Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama. Taxonomy and systematics As the sapayoa's specific epithet aenigma ("the enigma") implies, its relationships have long been elusive. The sapayoa was formally described by the German ornithologist Ernst Hartert in 1903 under the present binomial name Sapayoa aenigma.
