A slender, long-tailed canopy warbler-like bird with a gray crown and cheeks contrasting with a striking pale lemon eye and black throat that extends to the upper breast. Back and wings are olive green, belly and vent are bright yellow, and the black tail has white outer feathers. Pairs are resident in forest and forest edge, where they may join mixed-species flocks. Song, often in duet, a strident repeated two syllable “ti-leep” from the male and a higher-pitched ‘ti-ti-ti….” from the female.
