The rufous-gaped hillstar (Urochroa bougueri) formerly known as white-tailed hillstar is a species of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae, and one of two species in the genus Urochroa. It is found in humid montane forest in southern Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru. It has two species, the nominate species on the west Andean slope, and U. leucura on the east Andean slope. The two differ most conspicuously in that the former has a broad orange malar, which the latter lacks. Both have a straight black bill, greenish upperparts, a blue throat, grey belly, and extensive white to the tail. Although sharing the name hillstar with the members of the genus Oreotrochilus, they are quite different and not closely related.
