The Malagasy bulbul (Hypsipetes madagascariensis) is a species of songbird in the bulbul family, Pycnonotidae.

It is found on Madagascar and other regional islands in the south-western Indian Ocean.

The Malagasy bulbul was originally described in the genus Turdus.

The alternate name 'black bulbul' should not be confused with the species of the same name, Hypsipetes leucocephalus, with which it was formerly considered as conspecific.
