The white-throated daggerbill, white-throated wedgebill or western wedge-billed hummingbird (Schistes albogularis) is a species of hummingbird in the family Trochilidae. It is sometimes merged with the visorbearers in Augastes. It is found in western Colombia and Ecuador. It has been split from the Geoffroy's daggerbill by most taxonomic authorities. Some authorities continue to lump both species together, calling them the wedge-billed hummingbird. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest.
