- Notes - Scientific name: Eurystomus orientalis orientalis Family: Coraciidae Local name: Lorong Intsik (Tag); Salak (Vis) Other common names: Red-billed Roller, (Eastern) Broad-billed Roller Usually seen perching on a dead limb, the dollarbird is often seen flying about actively just after dark, like a night-hawk. With its characteristic bright red bill and gaudy feathers, it does not bear any resemblance to any other Philippine species. It lays eggs in tree holes or in the old nests of other birds. A full clutch consists of four eggs, which are white in color.
