The Artamidse, or Swallow-shrikes, are a curious group of 

 birds, ranging over the greater part of the Oriental and Austra- 

 lian regions as far east as the Fiji Islands and south to Tasmania. 

 Only a single species inhabits India, and they are more plentiful 

 in Australia than in any other locality. The only well-marked 

 genus is Artamus. 



There are a few Madagascar birds belonging to the genus 

 Artamia, which some ornithologists place in this family, others 

 with the Laniidse, but which are here classed with the Oriolidse.
