A disc transport apparatus for detecting a disc-shaped recording medium with specified diameter, transporting the disc-shaped recording medium to a chucking position, but not transporting a disc-shaped recording medium with different diameter, when detected, to the chucking position includes a recording medium mount section capable of mounting a first disc having a first diameter and a second disc having a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter, an optical detection unit that uses a light receiving section for receiving reflected light from a detection target in response to light emitted from a light emitting section and that is provided at a position opposite a disc having the first diameter when the disc is mounted on the recording medium mount section and at a position not opposite a disc having the second diameter when the disc is mounted on the recording medium mount section, and a control section for determining whether a disc is mounted based on a detection result of the optical detection means.
