The white-bellied treepie (Dendrocitta leucogastra) is a bird of the crow family endemic to the forests of southern India.
The white of the head and body makes it easy to distinguish from the sympatric rufous treepie.
[5] A record from Erimalai near Dharmapuri[6] and reports from the Surat Dangs and the southeastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh stand outside its main distribution range.
[3] The white-bellied treepie eats fruits, seeds, nectar, invertebrates, reptiles, rodents, nestlings and eggs.
Several birds may arrive at one tree and call repeatedly during the pre-monsoon breeding season (mainly April–May but some nests from February).
