About White-crowned Cuckoo
The white-crowned cuckoo or white-crowned koel is a species of cuckoo in the family Cuculidae. It was formerly placed in the monotypic genus Caliechthrus but it has a similar song to cuckoos of the genus Cacomantis and is genetically similar to the pallid cuckoo, so most taxonomists place it there.
