Common Woodskimmer

Little information exists in Interlandia about Common Woodskimmers. They are sometimes named Tropical Skimmers, but all members of its genus, Uracis, are tropical. Records exist from southern Mexico to northern Argentina. One sighting was made in eastern Cuba. Lasley writes, “The Tropical Skimmer (Uracis imbuta) is a widespread and common species in parts of South America.” We found this male on 3 July at the entrance to Carara National Park in western Costa Rica.
