The Brown-headed Jewel-babbler (Ptilorrhoa geislerorum), also known as the Dimorphic Jewel-babbler or Brown-capped Jewel-babbler, is a species of jewel-babbler in the family Cinclosomatidae. The species was once considered to be conspecific with the Blue Jewel-babbler, but is separated altitudinally from that species and varies in behaviour, calls and female plumage.
