Feeding Habits
Green-backed Gerygone predominantly eats insects like spiders, cockroach egg sacs, beetles, bugs, wasps, and lepidopteran larvae. Green-backed Gerygone forages alone or in small groups, mainly in mid-upper forest levels, favoring tall casuarinas. Green-backed Gerygone gleans among foliage, hangs upside-down, and performs sallies and flutter-chases to disturb and capture prey.
Habitat
The green-backed Gerygone is typically found in environments rich in vegetation, including riparian and monsoon vine forests, areas with thick undergrowth, and mangroves. The bird is also known to inhabit relict forests near sandstone outcrops, gorges, and valleys, as well as zones where mangroves transition to paperbark forests. Occasionally, the green-backed Gerygone may reside in the peripheral zones of dry, open eucalypt woodlands that border these more densely vegetated areas. In broader regions, it occupies forested areas, cultivated gardens, and areas of secondary growth.
