The scaly-breasted kingfisher or regent kingfisher (''Actenoides princeps'') is a species of bird in the family Alcedinidae endemic to central and southwestern Sulawesi in Indonesia. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical, moist, montane forests. ==Description== The adult scaly-breasted kingfisher measures about in length. It has a blue head and reddish-brown collar, and the female has a buff-coloured forehead. The back is dark brown scalloped with buff. The underparts are plain whitish-buff in the male and are barred with darker colour in the female. Birds in the northeast of the range have horn-coloured bills, northwestern birds have red bills, and southern birds have orange and brown bills. Also some differences are seen between the subspecies in the detail of the plumage. The only bird with which this species might be confused is the green-backed kingfisher (''Actenoides monachus''), also present in Sulawesi, but that species is usually found at lower altitudes and has a dark-green back and reddish-brown underparts.
