from - Wiki font: The Bananaquit (Coereba flaveola) is a species of passerine bird of uncertain relation. It is tentatively placed in the tanager family, but classified as incertae sedis by other authorities such as the American Ornithologists' Union. Its classification is debated, and it is often placed in its own family: Coerebidae. It has recently been suggested the Bananaquit should be split into three species, but this has yet to receive widespread recognition. This small, active nectarivore is found in warmer parts of the Americas, and is generally common. (in Brazil, this movie - Taiaçupeba, Mogi das Cruzes-SP) A cambacica (Coereba flaveola) é a única espécie da família Coerebidae no sistema classificativo tradicional. É também conhecida como mariquita, chupa mel, chiquita (Rio de Janeiro), sebinho (Minas Gerais), caga-sebo, cabeça-de-vaca (interior de São Paulo), sebito e guriatã de coqueiro (Pernambuco), sebinho, papa-banana (Rio Grande do Sul), saí e tem-tem-coroado (Pará), sibito-de-manga (Maranhão). Nos sistemas classificativos anteriores à taxonomia de Sibley-Ahlquist, a cambacica classificava-se numa família própria, Coerebidae.
