Description
These birds are tiny (9 cm long) and there is no marked difference between the males and females. The subspecies found in northeastern India, extending into Myanmar, Laos and southern China is called olivaceum by earlier authors but is treated by Pamela C. Rasmussen as a separate species Dicaeum minullum (which includes the population minullum from Hainan Island and is now termed as the plain flowerpecker in the more restricted sense).

Habitat
Plain Flowerpecker's habitat predominantly includes evergreen and moist deciduous forests, peatswamp, and montane regions, often preferring edge habitats. They adapt to secondary woodlands and agricultural areas with trees. The presence of mistletoes, especially Loranthus epiphytes, is vital for their ecosystem. Plain Flowerpecker favors regions close to sea level but occupies a wide altitudinal range.
