The Talaud Kingfisher is a kingfisher whose main range is the Talaud Islands of Indonesia. One field description records a green head, blue wings and tail, and a white collar, but its separation from the Collared Kingfisher has been debated.
A field description cited by BirdForum gives it a deep, blue-tinged green crown, forehead, and ear-coverts, green-blue wings, and a broad white collar. The same page cautions that these traits may overlap with the Collared Kingfisher.
Oiseaux.net describes it as active by day and terrestrial, feeding on invertebrates captured on the ground. The account lists wet forest, freshwater, and riverine settings as habitat.
An extinction-risk assessment has not been added yet.
