Malaconotus

Malaconotus is a genus of bird in the bush-shrike family Malaconotidae . About 60% of the species formerly placed here are now usually separated in Telophorus. The old taxonomy is also often found though.

Malaconotus sensu stricto contains the following species:

  • Fiery-breasted bushshrike, Malaconotus cruentus
  • Lagden's bushshrike, Malaconotus lagdeni
  • Green-breasted bushshrike, Malaconotus gladiator
  • Grey-headed bushshrike, Malaconotus blanchoti
  • Monteiro's bushshrike, Malaconotus monteiri
  • Uluguru bushshrike, Malaconotus alius

Sometimes the olive bushshrike (Telophorus olivaceus) is included in this genus.
