The Bornean bristlehead , also variously known as the bristled shrike, bald-headed crow or the bald-headed wood-shrike, is the only member of the passerine family Pityriasidae and genus ''Pityriasis''. It is an enigmatic and uncommon species of the rainforest canopy of the island of Borneo, to which it is endemic.
