The Spotted Paradise-Flycatcher is a small bird with black-and-white plumage and a long forked tail. It lives near fast mountain streams and rivers in the forests of Asia.
The Spotted Paradise-Flycatcher differs from related species by white spots on the wings and a strongly forked tail. It is important for nature because it eats insects and indicates the purity of mountain streams.
