Calyptomena hosii, commonly called Hose's Broadbill, is a bird classified under Family Calyptomenidae. It is an endemic species in Borneo. The distribution of this species is restricted to the hill and submontane mixed dipterocarp forests. The bird has been recorded living at elevations between 600 and 1,220 m above the sea (Lim et al., 2020; BirdLife International, 2022).
Hose's Broadbill is sexually dimorphic, meaning males and females differ in appearance. Sexually, the male owns vibrant green plumage whereas that of the female typically appears dull. The male also has rich covers of tuft feathers on the forehead that obscure the bill meanwhile the female has smaller forehead tuft. The female also possesses black spots on its head and fewer blue-covered underparts (only from belly centre to undertail-coverts), compared to the male which has blue underparts covered from its chest to undertail-coverts (Myers, 2016; Lim et al., 2020).
This passerine bird feeds mainly on fruits. It uses its wide gape and short bill to eat relatively soft fruits such as figs, and supplements its diet with insects (Myers, 2016). It usually forages quietly for fruits in pairs (Bruce, 2020).
