Only one vessel of the Royal Navy has borne the name HMS Colibri, after the Colibri, a genus of hummingbird.
The Brown Violetear (Colibri delphinae) is a large hummingbird that breeds at middle elevations in the mountains in Central America, and western and northern South America (primarily the Andes and the Tepuis) with isolated populations on Trinidad and in the Brazilian state Bahia.
The Green Violetear forages alone but tends to gather at flowering trees, especially coffee-shade Inga.
