Ok. A few comments below. They are generally suggestions so don’t feel you have to implement them if you don’t think it will improve the article, but I would appreciate a response to each one.
J. F. Gmelin, 1788supposed to be a cite. If it is it is missing some information. Or is it supposed to be who discovered the species and the year they did? If so it is a bit ambiguous. Aircorn (talk) 23:44, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
Why are you not using the recommended citations for birds of the world?
Kirwan, G. M., J. del Hoyo, M.D. Bruce, and N. Collar (2021). Black-and-red Broadbill (Cymbirhynchus macrorhynchos), version 2.0. In Birds of the World (M. A. Bridwell and B. K. Keeney, Editors). Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Ithaca, NY, USA. https://doi.org/10.2173/bow.barbro1.02This would be much better than the webcite. Aircorn (talk) 23:48, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
Nests are also rarely built fair from water, over roads and paths.I assume you mean far. Not sure whether you are meaning with the comma. Are the rarely built far from over roads or ar the rarely built over roads?
It is unlikely to be visually confused with any other birdin the lead. I am not sure this is well enough established in the body
It can also adapt quite well to disturbed habitat, inhabiting secondary growth and degraded habitat near rivers.I feel this sentence could be clearer (secondary forest growth).
The black-and-red broadbill is much less vocal than other species of Asian broadbills, often remaining silent, and with quieter calls than most other broadbills. In Laos, the most frequently heard call was a series of accelerating parnk notes, similar to the noise made by the wingbeats of a wreathed hornbill. Other vocalizations include a cicada-like grating call, a monotonous repeated tyook, a rasping wiark, churring calls, and melodious whistles. They also make ascending trills, similar to those of the black-and-yellow broadbill, but shorter, slower, softer, and quieter. The alarm call is a series of rapid pip notes. Other vocalizations include a hoarse ka-ka-kraaar-kraaar, a hoarse twanging cow, and puma-like snarls.
It prefers to inhabit lowland forest near rivers and streams, including evergreen and semi-evergreen forest, mixed dipterocarp forest, riverine forest, swamp forest of various types, nipah, and mangroves. It can also be found in plantations near water, including rubber and Albizia, as well as in villages and settlements.is nearly word-for-word from the source

@ Micromesistius:, the IOC World Bird List shows the black-and-red broadbill as monotypic so far. AryKun ( talk) 03:11, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
Mat Kiyan, I don't see the utility in adding the information about the s[ecies being common in Singapore when Farquhar visited. He visited in the early 1800's, and the broadbill was commonly seen in Singapore for well over a century after that. Additionally, it's not like Farquhar's visit was particularly significant; none of the other sources I've seen refer to it. AryKun ( talk) 13:16, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
