The Black-headed Shrike-babbler is a stocky bird with a black head, deep chestnut underparts, and olive-green upperparts. It inhabits broadleaf montane forests of the eastern Himalayas and adjacent hills of China and Southeast Asia at elevations from 900 to 2,500 meters. It forages methodically through the forest midstory, prying open bark and searching branches for insects and larvae.
