The Chorister Robin-Chat is marked by its black hood and orange underparts. In southern Africa it lives in moist forests and searches for food on the ground and in trees.
The upperparts are slate gray and the underparts are orange; the middle of the tail is black. It has no white eyebrow, and its black head frames the face.
It is usually solitary and looks for insects and other small invertebrates, as well as fruit, on the forest floor and in the canopy. Its rich song can include imitations of other birds.
