The Halmahera Flowerpecker is a small bird about 9 centimeters long. It lives in the tropical forests of Halmahera Island in Indonesia and feeds on berries, nectar, and insects.
The Halmahera Flowerpecker differs from related species by the gray-blue head of males. It is important for the forest because it disperses mistletoe plant seeds.
