Shrike-tit Falcunculus frontatus is a bird endemic to Australia. Three subspecies inhabit open eucalypt forest and woodland in the southwest (F. f. leucogaster), north (F. f. whitei) and east (F. f. frontatus). These are sometimes considered full species. It has a parrot-like bill, used for distinctive bark-stripping behaviour, which gains it access to invertebrates. Males are larger than females in wing length, weight, and bill-size (Noske 2003). Males have black throats, while females have olive green.
