Ceblepyris is a genus of African passerine birds in the cuckooshrike family Campephagidae.
These species were formerly placed in the genus Coracina. A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010 found that Coracina, as then defined, was non-monophyletic. In the resulting reorganization to create monophyletic genera these species were moved to the resurrected genus Ceblepyris.[2]
The genus contains the following five species:[3]
- Madagascar cuckooshrike (Ceblepyris cinereus)
- Comoro cuckooshrike (Ceblepyris cucullatus)
- Grauer's cuckooshrike (Ceblepyris graueri)
- White-breasted cuckooshrike (Ceblepyris pectoralis)
- Grey cuckooshrike (Ceblepyris caesius)
