The Golden-bellied Gerygone is a small bird with a gray-brown back and yellow underparts. It occurs in many tree-filled places, including cities, across parts of Southeast Asia.
The sexes are similar: the back is grayish brown and the underparts are yellow. Dark cheeks and ear coverts contrast with the yellowish throat.
It stays in the canopy and is often heard before it is seen. It is also a known brood host of the Little Bronze Cuckoo.
