A bird perched on a branch. Published in HBW Volume 11 on page 201. Original HBW caption: Fantails are often strikingly patterned in sombre hues. They tend to be largely made up of greys, browns, blacks and whites, but a few are dressed in rufous or blue. The Yellow-bellied Fantail is unique in being the only member of the family with any yellow in the plumage. It is also considerably smaller than most other rhipidurids, and for a time these anomalies led to it being separated in the genus Chelidorhynx. In all other respects the species is essentially similar to other fantails, and, with Chelidorhynx reduced to a subgenus, the entire family is grouped into a single genus, Rhipidura.
