The Casqued Oropendola (Clypicterus oseryi) is a species of bird in the Icteridae family. It is in the monotypic genus Clypicterus[citation needed] though it seems to be very close to the Band-tailed Oropendola and might be included in Psarocolius.

It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
