The white-backed mousebird (Colius colius) is a large species of mousebird. It is distributed in western and central regions of southern Africa from Namibia and southern Botswana eastwards to Central Transvaal and the eastern Cape. This mousebird prefers scrubby dry habitats, such as thornveld, fynbos scrub and semi-desert. The speckled mousebird can be distinguished from this species by its differently coloured beak, legs and upperparts. Order: Coliiformes, Family: Coliidae.
