A Bornean-endemic tit-babbler, only relatively recently split from the wider yellow-breasted tit-babbler complex found across the rest of Southeast Asia, distinguished by bold dark streaking on the underparts.
Forages actively in dense lowland forest understorey for insects, usually in pairs or small mixed-species flocks, more often heard — a chattering, scolding call — than seen clearly.
