Subspecies
No subspecies.
Closely related to and sometimes treated as conspecific with African Black-headed Oriole (Oriolus larvatus), with which it may hybridize in central Kenya, but the two differ in ecology and vocalizations. Both belong to the "African black-headed group", which includes also Green-headed Oriole (Oriolus chlorocephalus), Sao Tome Oriole (Oriolus crassirostris), Western Black-headed Oriole (Oriolus brachyrynchus), Ethiopian Black-headed Oriole (Oriolus monacha) and Black-winged Oriole (Oriolus nigripennis).
