Description
This is a very small passerine but a relatively stout flowerpecker, measuring 10 cm (3.9 in) in total length and weighing approximately 9 g (0.32 oz), with a short tail, short thick curved bill and tubular tongue. The latter features reflect the importance of nectar in its diet, although berries, spiders and insects are also taken. The male Legge's flowerpecker has blue-black upperparts, a white throat and upper breast, and yellow lower breast and belly. The female is duller, with olive-brown upperparts.

Habitat
The white-throated Flowerpecker predominantly resides in lush, rainforest regions with tall trees and entwining creepers, extending its range into drier forest areas. Occasionally, this species also frequents gardens and plantations that adjoin these forests, highlighting its affinity for richly vegetated environments that support its foraging activities.
