A cuckooshrike with a grayish head, throat, and upperparts and a white lower breast and belly; the male is dark slaty above with a mild sheen, and the female is matte gray with a buff vent. A scarce and extremely localized bird, restricted to the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, found in pairs in the canopy of western Albertine Rift mid-altitude and montane forest between 1150 and 1900 meters of elevation. This very seldom-seen bird’s vocalizations are unknown. Gray Cuckooshrike does not have a white belly and White-breasted Cuckooshrike is larger and paler than Grauer’s.
