Pelargopsis

:"Pelargopsis" was also invalidly given to ''Pelargopappus'', a genus of fossil secretarybirds.
''Pelargopsis'' is a genus of tree kingfishers which are resident in tropical south Asia from India and Sri Lanka to Indonesia. The species in taxonomic order are:
* Brown-winged kingfisher, ''Pelargopsis amauropterus''
* Stork-billed kingfisher, ''Pelargopsis capensis''
* Great-billed kingfisher, black-billed kingfisher or Celebes stork-billed kingfisher, ''Pelargopsis melanorhyncha''
These three kingfishers wer previously placed in the genus ''Halcyon''.
These are very large kingfishers, 35 cm in length. They have very large red or black bills and bright red legs. The head and underparts of these species are white or buff, and the wings and back are darker, coloured variously in green and blue, brown or black depending on species. Sexes are similar. The flight of the ''Pelargopsis'' kingfishers is flapping, but direct.
''Pelargopsis'' kingfishers inhabit a variety of well-wooded habitats near lakes, rivers, estuaries or coasts. They perches quietly whilst seeking food, and are often inconspicuous despite their size. They are territorial and will chase away eagles and other large predators. These species hunts crabs, fish, frogs, and in the case of stork-billed at least, rodents and young birds.
''Pelargopsis'' kingfishers excavate their nests in a river bank, decaying tree, or a tree termite nest and lay round white eggs.
