Yellow-bellied Gerygone (Gerygone chrysogaster)
About the Yellow-bellied Gerygone
The yellow-bellied gerygone (Gerygone chrysogaster) is a species of bird in the family Acanthizidae. The Yellow-Bellied Gerygone is native to New Guinea, typically found in subtropical or tropical moist lowlands forest. Shown to have least concern about population with it being very common, but is currently decreasing in population throughout New Guinea. The population as a whole is still unknown. The Yellow-Bellied Gerygone is widespread throughout New Guinea, including Aru Island, Yapen Island, and West Papuan Island. They like moist environments so therefore, they will forage in lowlands and forest. Usually the Yellow-Bellied Gerygone don’t migrate during seasonal change, but rarely will migrate 760 miles in hill forest to Tabubil, New Guinea.
