Includes: Javan Broadbill
- Eurylaimus javanicus

Size-21.5 to 23.5cm
A large, distinctive broadbill:
- head purple-red with black lores
- upperparts dark with prominent yellow markings
- back to base of upper tail yellow
- distal part of upper tail black
- wings blackish-brown with broad yellow on flight feathers

Males have a narrow, blackish breast band (most subspecies except javanicus) and a greyer-tinged head than females
Distribution
Found from southeast Burma to Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra and Java. Locally common in suitable habitat.
Taxonomy
Subspecies javanicus may be elevated as ”Javan Broadbill", C. javanicus based on plumage differences although it sounds similar to the other taxa [6]
Subspecies
Clements recognises the following subspecies [1]
- E. j. friedmanni: South-eastern Myanmar, Thailand and Indochina
- E. j. pallidus: Southern Thailand (Isthmus of Kra) and Malay Peninsula
- E. j. harterti: Sumatra, Riau Archipelago, Bangka Island and Belitung Island
- E. j. brookei: Borneo and North Natuna Islands
- E. j. javanicus: "Javan Broadbill". Java
Habitat
Lowland forest. Broadleaved evergreen jungle, semi evergreen jungles; wetter areas in mixed decidous jungle up to 1100m, locally higher.
Behaviour
Diet
Feeds mainly on insects, takes sometimes small fruits. Plucks prey from foliage. Sits often motionless on a perch.
Breeding
They build a pear-shaped nest suspended from the branch of a large tree, usually close to the trunk. The entrance, near the top of the nest, is protected by a slanting overhang. The nest is built from twigs, and a variety of vegetable material. The exterior of the nest is covered with bryophytes, lichens and cobwebs; the interior is lined with leaves.
