The wattled broadbill or Mindanao broadbill (Sarcophanops steerii) is a species of bird in the family Eurylaimidae where it was previously conspecific to the Visayan broadbill. It is endemic to the islands of Mindanao, Basilan, Dinagat and Siargao in the Philippines. It is one of the most striking birds in the country with its sky-blue wattle and bill and yellow wing patch. 
Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forest and occasionally tropical mangrove forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Description and taxonomy.
Described as a distinctive broadbill with prominent sky blue wattles, a maroon crown and tail, white collar, black head and wings with a priminent white band on the tertials and a yellow band on the secondaries. Bill, legs and feet are also bluish. They are sexually dimorphic in which the males have reddish-pink bellies with the females having clean white bellies.
Its voice is described as a metallic "chink" and its song is a plaintive whistle. Also snaps and clicks its bill while creating wing noise. 
It was previously conspecific with the Visayan broadbill. It is differentiated with its white collar and bright yellow patch. It is also larger with sizes of 16–18 cm in comparison to 14–15 cm for the Visayan broadbill.
Subspecies.
Two subspecies are recognized:
These subspecies are poorly differentiated and may need further study on whether these subspecies are valid or if ithis species is monotypic.
Ecology and behavior.
These birds are insectivorous where they forage in the middle and lower levels of the forest floor. Seen singly, in pairs or even small family groups of up to 6 birds. Seldomly joins mixed flocks.
Its nest has been recorded with main breeding season believed to be from April to June although immature birds have been recorded almost throughout the year. 
Habitat and conservation status.
Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland primary forest and well developed secondary forest up to 1,220 meters above sea level although majority of records are well below that. It appears to not be able to tolerate great amounts of forest degradation. It is known to forage in the lower levels of the forest in the understory and close to the forest floor.
IUCN has assessed this bird as vulnerable with the population being estimated at 2,500 to 9,999. Extensive lowland deforestation on all islands in its range is the main threat. Most remaining lowland forest that is not afforded protection leaving it vulnerable to both legal and Illegal logging, conversion into farmlands through Slash-and-burn and mining. There are currently no species specific conservation plans. 
This occurs in a few protected areas such as Mt. Apo, Pasonanca Natural Park and Siargao Island Protected Landscape however protection is lax.
Conservation actions proposed include to survey remaining habitat to establish its current distribution, population status and ecology.
