Description
The golden-breasted fulvetta is a small bird, measuring 10–11.5 cm (3.9–4.5 in) in length with a mass between 5 and 10 g (0.18 and 0.35 oz). The head and crown are black or grey and the black wings have orange-yellow slashes. The secondaries are tipped white and brown tail has two thirds of the base edged in orange yellow. The underparts are predominantly yellow and the throat may be grey or yellowish depending on the populations. The presence, prominence and colour of the median crown stripe varies with populations. The sexes are indistinguishable by plumage.

Feeding Habits
Golden-breasted Fulvetta primarily consume insects, small berries, and seeds. They forage in pairs or groups, sometimes joining mixed-species flocks. Their behavior includes low-down foraging and hanging upside-down like tits when feeding.
Habitat
Golden-breasted Fulvetta typically inhabits dense broad-leaved evergreen forests and montane bamboo regions with lush undergrowth. They are predominantly found in high-altitude areas across various montane regions in Asia. During breeding season, they reside at elevations between 2,000–2,800 meters and migrate to lower foothills around 1,300–1,600 meters in winter. The species forages at low heights and is known to participate in mixed-species flocks, particularly in colder months.

Species Status
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists the golden-breasted fulvetta as a species of least concern. Although its population has not been quantified and is thought to be declining, the decline is not thought to be precipitous, and its overall range is vast. In recent times, there has been growing pressure on some populations, with people collecting them as a food source or as pets. Several species of feather mite have been described from specimens of the golden-breasted fulvetta including Timalinyssus grallator, Neocalcealges chrysotis, Anhemialge lioparus and Resartor extraneus from China.
