The Black-tailed Trogon, Trogon melanurus, is a species of bird in the Trogonidae family. It is found in humid forest in the Amazon Basin, north-western South America and adjacent Panama. The taxon mesurus from western Ecuador and far north-western Peru was formerly considered a subspecies of the Black-tailed Trogon, but is now considered a separate species, the Ecuadorian Trogon.
