Coracina is a large genus of birds in the cuckooshrike family Campephagidae.

The genus was introduced by the French ornithologist Louis Pierre Vieillot in 1816.[1] The type species was subsequently designated as the white-bellied cuckooshrike by the German ornithologist Jean Cabanis in 1850–1851.[2][3] The name Coracina is from the Ancient Greek korakinos meaning "little raven", a diminutive of korax meaning "raven".[4]

The genus formerly included many more species. It was split based on the results of a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010. A major clade was moved to the resurrected genus Edolisoma and a smaller group of Asian and Indian Ocean species moved to the genus Lalage.[5][6]

The genus contains the following 23 species:[6]

Stout-billed cuckooshrike (Coracina caeruleogrisea)
Hooded cuckooshrike (Coracina longicauda)
Cerulean cuckooshrike (Coracina temminckii)
Pied cuckooshrike (Coracina bicolor)
Ground cuckooshrike (Coracina maxima)
Barred cuckooshrike (Coracina lineata)
Black-faced cuckooshrike (Coracina novaehollandiae)
Boyer's cuckooshrike (Coracina boyeri)
Buru cuckooshrike (Coracina fortis)
Wallacean cuckooshrike (Coracina personata)
North Melanesian cuckooshrike (Coracina welchmani)
South Melanesian cuckooshrike (Coracina caledonica)
Bar-bellied cuckooshrike (Coracina striata)
Javan cuckooshrike (Coracina javensis)
Large cuckooshrike (Coracina macei)
Andaman cuckooshrike (Coracina dobsoni)
Slaty cuckooshrike (Coracina schistacea)
White-rumped cuckooshrike (Coracina leucopygia)
Sunda cuckooshrike (Coracina larvata)
White-bellied cuckooshrike (Coracina papuensis)
Manus cuckooshrike (Coracina ingens)
Moluccan cuckooshrike (Coracina atriceps)
Little cuckooshrike (Coracina robusta mentalis)[7]
