Introduction
Yellow-bellied Chat-Tyrant is a small flycatcher of the mountains of northwestern South America. Found from northern Venezuela south along the Andes to northern Peru, it inhabits dense undergrowth in forest between 2000 and 2900 meters in elevation. This is a lovely species, rufous-olive above with black wings marked by two rufous wingbars, a broad yellow supercilium, and yellow underparts with an olive breast. Typically staying inconspicuous in its dense habitat, Yellow-bellied Chat-Tyrant sometimes can be detected by its song, a tight, descending trill.

Races may form two groups based on vocabulary: nominate and tovarensis appear to stand apart from the others, but much more evidence needed. Proposed race meridana (Mérida, in Venezuela) appears indistinguishable from nominate; cajamarcae (Cajamarca, in Peru) synonymized with gratiosa. Five subspecies recognized.Subspecies
