Australian magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen)
A bird species native to Australia and southern New Guinea, known for its black-and-white plumage and complex vocalizations.

Refers to the Eurasian magpie (Pica pica), a different species. カササギフエガラス is not a true magpie but a member of the Artamidae family.
The Japanese name is a compound of カササギ (Eurasian magpie) + フエ (flute) + ガラス (crow), likely referring to its magpie-like appearance and flute-like call. The exact derivation is uncertain.
