The Malayan black magpie is a crow-family bird found in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore and Thailand. Despite its name it is neither a magpie nor, as was long believed, a jay, but a treepie, one of a distinct group of crows that look much like magpies. The Bornean black magpie was formerly considered the same species (Wikipedia, general species account).
