The Pirre hummingbird was formerly placed in the monospecific genus Goethalsia. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2014 found that the Pirre hummingbird was closely related to the violet-capped hummingbird in the genus Goldmania.[3] The two species were therefore placed together in Goldmania which has priority.[2]
