Blue-crowned Trogon (Trogon curucui) [XC212445]
     by Niels Poul Dreyer from Passo de Camaragibe, Alagoas, Brazil (song)

 
Blue-crowned Trogon (Trogon curucui) [XC594555]
     by Mauricio Cuellar Ramirez (@Birding.travel) from Pava Negra Nature Reserve - Florencia, Caquet\u00e1., Colombia (call)

Subspecies
Possibly closest to Mountain Trogon (Trogon mexicanus), Elegant Trogon (Trogon elegans), Collared Trogon (Trogon collaris), Masked Trogon (Trogon personatus) and Black-throated Trogon (Trogon rufus). DNA studies suggest, however, that nearest relatives may be Violaceous Trogon (Trogon violaceus) and White-tailed Trogon (Trogon viridis). Formerly current name variegatus is a junior synonym of curucui, whereas bolivianus is a synonym of peruvianus.

The following 3 subspecies are recognised:

  • peruvianus Swainson, 1838   -  Foot of eastern Andes from Colombia south to north-western Bolivia (R Beni), and east to north-central Brazil (R Tapajós).
  • curucui Linnaeus, 1766   -  Central and eastern Brazil.
  • behni Gould, 1875   -  Eastern Bolivia, south-western Brazil, Paraguay and northern Argentina.
