Greater coucal A coucal is one of about 30 species of birds in the cuckoo family. Al of them belong in the subfamily Centropodinae and the genus Centropus. Unlike many old world cuckoo's, coucal are not brood parasites, though they do have their own reproductive peculiarity: all members of the genus are (to varying degrees) sex-role reversed, so that the smaller male provides most of the parental care. At least one coucal species, the black coucal, is polyandrous. Some species have the male investing more in incubation and parental care.
