Aglaia cyanoptera Swainson, 1834 (currently recognized as Tangara cyanoptera). ... Etymology. The name, feminine in gender, is derived from the Greek στιλπνη, the feminine form of the adjective meaning "glittering" or "glistening," alluding to the glossiness of the plumage of these colorful tanagers.
