A tiny bird of forest and gardens on Palawan and neighboring islands. Male has gray upperparts with a red crown patch, a white moustache stripe, a yellow rump, a white chin, a yellow throat and chest with a red smudge, and a white belly.
Female is a much duller version of the male, with brown wings and a gray head. Female is similar to Thick-billed Flowerpecker, but has a yellow chest and rump. Voice is a rough “jak,” sometimes given rapidly in a harsh trill.
