''Tachymarptis'' is a genus of bird in the swift family, Apodidae. It contains the Alpine swift (''Tachymarptis melba'') of Eurasia and Africa and the mottled swift (''Tachymarptis aequatorialis'') of Africa. They are large swifts with relatively broad wings, a large head, a medium-length forked tail and white in the underparts.〔Chantler, Phil & Gerald Driessens (2000) ''Swifts: A Guide to the Swifts and Treeswifts of the World'', 2nd ed., Pica Press, East Sussex.〕 They are often included in the genus ''Apus'' but they are larger than other members of that genus, their nestlings have a different foot structure and they host different species of feather lice.〔 A recent study of mitochondrial and nuclear markers supports the separation of ''Tachymarptis'' and ''Apus''.〔Päckert, Martin; A. Feigl, M. Wink & D.T. Tietze (2011) (Molecular phylogeny and historical biogeography of swifts (Apodidae: ''Apus'', ''Tachymarptis'') ). 5th IBS conference, 7‐11.01.2011, Irakleion, Crete, Greece.〕 The name ''Tachymarptis'' comes from Greek ''takhus'' ("fast") and ''marptis'' ("seizer").〔Jobling, James A. (2010) ''Helm Dictionary of Scientific Bird Names'', 2nd ed., Christopher Helm, London.〕 ==References==
