The broad-billed tody (Todus subulatus) is one of the two species of tody native to the island of Hispaniola. It can be identified by its small size, stubby beak, ruby-red throat, and green back. While its close relative, the narrow-billed tody is more prevalent in the higher altitude areas, the broad-billed tody prefers lower altitude habitats. To nest, it digs into a river bank, similar to a kingfisher. Order: Coraciiformes, Family: Todidae, Genus: Todus, Species: Todus subulatus G.R. Gray, 1847
