The Black-breasted Fruit-hunter (Chlamydochaera jefferyi) is an enigmatic species of bird nowadays placed with the typical thrushes in the family Turdidae. It is endemic to forests on the south-east Asian island Borneo.

It is highly distinct from other thrushes, instead being convergent to Corvoidea such as trillers (Lalage) or true orioles (Oriolus). Thus, it is placed in a monotypic genus Chlamydochaera.^{[citation needed]}

The Black-breasted Fruit-hunter is not considered a threatened species by the IUCN.
