The Gould's inca (Coeligena inca) is a species of hummingbird found in humid Andean forest of south-eastern Peru and Bolivia. It is sometimes considered a subspecies of the collared inca, but has a rufous (not white) chest-patch. BirdLife International (and consequently IUCN) includes it as a subspecies of the collared inca and therefore do not rate it, but it remains locally fairly common and is unlikely to be threatened.

The common name commemorates the English ornithologist and bird artist John Gould (1804-1881).[1]
