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 Artawnus . 
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 Oriolidee.
