Javan trogon
Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox
The Javan trogon (Apalharpactes reinwardtii) is a bird species in the family Trogonidae. It was previously grouped with the Sumatran trogon as a single species, known as the blue-tailed trogon. However, differences in size, weight, and plumage have led to their classification as separate species.[1] Both species were once included in the genus Harpactes alongside other Asian trogons, but due to differences in plumage, they have been reclassified into their own genus, Apalharpactes.
The Javan trogon is endemic to western Java, Indonesia.
Its natural habitat consist of subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
