Palawan Crow, Corvus pusillus, is a passerine crow of the Philippines, breeding in Mindoro, the Calamian Islands and the Palawan group in the south-west. It was described by Tweeddale in 1878. It belongs to the Corvidae and was once treated as part of the Slender-billed Crow complex before being recognised as separate. It is found in tropical moist lowland forest and mangrove forest, and also in forest edge. It is noted for its ashy grey plumage, lanky build and frog-like call.
