Vanga (kutoka Kimalagasi: vanga) ni ndege wa familia Vangidae. Wanatokea Madagaska tu isipokuwa vanga buluu wa Komori ambaye anatokea kisiwa cha Mwali katika Komori. Takriban spishi zote zina rangi ya nyeusi, kijivu au kahawa juu na nyeupe au pinki chini, lakini chache zina rangi ya buluu na vanga domo-buluu ni mweusi mwenye mgongo mwekundu na vanga wa Bernier ni mweusi kabisa (jike ana rangi ya kahawa).
