Nesophlox is a genus in the family of Hummingbirds. It consists of two endemic hummingbirds of the Bahamas.
The genus contains two species:[1]
These species were formerly placed in the genus Calliphlox. Molecular phylogenetic studies published in 2014 and 2017 found that the genus Calliphlox was polyphyletic.[2][3] In the revised classification to create monophyletic genera, the Bahama woodstar and the Inagua woodstar were moved to the resurrected genus Nesophlox that had been introduced by Robert Ridgway in 1910.[1][4]
