The large woodshrike, Tephrodornis virgatus, is a woodshrike usually placed in the family Vangidae. It lives in forests, including temperate forest, moist lowland and montane forest, and mangrove forest. Ten subspecies are recognised, and the Malabar woodshrike is sometimes treated as the same species (Wikipedia, general species account).

The source places it in south-eastern Asia, Sumatra, Java and Borneo and does not name Nepal or the Himalaya, so its Nepal status should be checked. No size, diet or breeding information was found in the source opened (Wikipedia, general species account).
