Previously referred to as coelestina, however, the syntypes of that taxon proved to be conspecific with chlorocyana.
Consequently, the species is now referred to as chlorocyana, since the latter name has nomenclatural priority over coelestina
(Köhler & Hedges 2020; International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature 2020: Opinion 2449).
The species referred to as chlorocyana in older literature is now known as callainus.
