Overview

The Sunda frogmouth (Batrachostomus cornutus) is a medium-sized, old world species of bird within the order Podargiformes. It is also uncommonly referred to as the long-tailed frogmouth or the horned frogmouth. The term "Sunda" is based on the geographical range of the species to regions around the Sunda islands. The genus name, Batrachostomus, is a Greek translation to 'frogmouth', which comes from the wide shape of the bill and slight gape.
