Laniidae

Hybridization occurs in only one genus of Shrikes, Lanius.

In Western Siberia, Red-backed Shrike (L. collurio) and Brown Shrike (L. cristatus) interbreed and produce fertile offspring (Kryukov & Gureev, 1997).

And in North America, two subspecies of Loggerhead Shrike (L. ludovicianus migrans  and L. l. excubitorides) hybridize along a contact zone (Vallianatos, Lougheed & Boag, 2001).
