This is a list of Coraciiformes species by global population. While numbers are estimates, they have been made by the experts in their fields. For more information on how these estimates were ascertained, see Wikipedia's articles on population biology and population ecology.

This list is incomprehensive, as not all Coraciiformes have had their numbers quantified.

Common name	Binomial name	Population	Status	Trend	Notes	Image
Niau kingfisher	Todiramphus gambieri	100-150[1]	CR[1]	[1]	Endemic to Niau. Numbered 400 – 600 in 1974. Surveys in 2019 estimated 173 individuals in total.[1]
Kofiau paradise kingfisher	Tanysiptera ellioti	350 – 1500[2]	NT[2]	[2]	It is difficult to estimate the population size of this species; however, the population is considered very unlikely to number fewer than 1,000 mature individuals.[2]
Moustached kingfisher	Actenoides bougainvillei	1300-7000 (best estimate: 2500-5000)[3]	LC[3]	[3]
Mewing kingfisher	Todiramphus ruficollaris	2100-3500 (best estimate: 2700)[4]	LC[4]	[4]	Previous surveys are considered likely to have underestimated the number of T. ruficollaris in secondary habitats due to their exclusion of agricultural habitat in their calculation.
Marquesan kingfisher	Todiramphus godeffroyi	350[5]	CR[5]	[5]	Numbered 695 in 2003. Numbered approximately 350 mature individuals in 2014.[5]
Azure dollarbird	Eurystomus azureus	1,500-7,000[6]	NT[6]	[6]	Possibly up to 2,500-9,999 individuals based on an assessment of known records, descriptions of abundance and range size.[6]
Keel-billed motmot	Electron carinatum	1,500-7,000[7]	VU[7]	[7]
Scaly ground roller	Geobiastes squamiger	1,500-7,000[8]	VU[8]	[8]
Short-legged ground roller	Brachypteracias leptosomus	10,000-25,000[9]	VU[9]	[9]
White-mantled kingfisher	Todiramphus albonotatus	2,500-9,999[10]	NT[10]	[10]
Bismarck kingfisher	Ceyx websteri	2,500-9,999[11]	VU[11]	[11]
Hombron's kingfisher	Actenoides hombroni	15,000[12]	LC[12]	[12]	The population size of this species is unknown. The population probably still numbers tens of thousands of individuals.
Sombre kingfisher	Todiramphus funebris	10,000-25,000 (best estimate: 15,000-25,000)[13]	LC[13]	[13]
Winchell's kingfisher	Todiramphus winchelli	2,500-9,999[14]	VU[14]	[14]
Vanuatu kingfisher	Todiramphus farquhari	14,000-94,000[15]	NT[15]	[15]
Blue-banded kingfisher	Alcedo euryzona	50-249[16]	CR[16]	[16]	Difficult to estimate, but population size thought to be very small.
Philippine dwarf kingfisher	Ceyx melanurus	15,000 – 30,000[17]	LC[17]	[17]	While its population size is recorded as unknown, given its range covers nearly 80,000 km2, even if only a small percentage of this is occupied, the global population size is unlikely to be small.
Blue-throated motmot	Aspatha gularis	20,000-49,999[18]	LC[18]	[18]
Tody motmot	Hylomanes momotula	20,000-49,999[19]	LC[19]	[19]

Amazon kingfisher	Chloroceryle amazona	500,000-4,999,999[23]	LC[23]	[23]
