The broad-tipped hermit (Anopetia gounellei) is a species of hummingbird found in northeast Brazil that has been placed in a monotypic genus Anopetia. It has a large range and is not endangered.
There is a consideration that A. gounellei can be the effective pollinator of plants. To explore the climate and altitude conditions that A. gounellei can endure, detailed studies, such as niche modeling and natural history, are still needed.[2]
