Batrachostomus stellatus or commonly known as the Gould's frogmouth is a species of bird in the Podargidae family. It is a medium-sized bird measuring about 25 cm in length (Strange & Jeyarajasingam, 1993). This species occurs in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand where it can be found in subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. The Gould's frogmouth has two colour morphs which are chestnut and dark chestnut. The adult has whitish collar across the mantle, bold whitish spots on its wings, greyish-white spots on the scapular, and underparts with oval-shaped buffish markings. It feeds on insects in the lower storeys of the forest. Due to habitat loss, this species has been listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List (BirdLife International, 2017).
