Eurylaimus

Eurylaimus is a genus of broadbills (family Eurylaimidae) found in Southeast Asia.

The genus Eurylaimus was introduced in 1821 by the American naturalist Thomas Horsfield to accommodate the banded broadbill (Eurylaimus javanicus). The name means 'broad throat', from the Greek eurus (εὐρύς, 'broad, wide') and laimos (λαιμός, 'throat').

Two extant species are recognized:
