Description
Zappey's flycatcher (Cyanoptila cumatilis) is a songbird in the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae. It breeds in central China and winters to the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Java. It was formerly considered to be conspecific with the blue-and-white flycatcher. 
Feeding Habits
Zappey's Flycatcher primarily consumes small invertebrates and occasionally fruit. It employs a perch-and-pounce technique to pursue flying insects, catching them from a prominent lookout.
Habitat
The zappey's Flycatcher is typically found in mixed coniferous and deciduous submontane forests. These regions are characterized by a mosaic of evergreen and broad-leaved trees, providing the zappey's Flycatcher with diverse foraging opportunities and nesting sites within a variety of wooded landscapes. During winter, the zappey's Flycatcher is reported in areas with similar forest compositions at varied elevations within its range.
