It differs from the rest of Ploceus in The Gambia in the black, broad lore which continues behind the eye. Black throat and orangish yellow rest of head. Yellow iris and black bill. Strong sexual dimorphism, female lacking black on throat and with a duller general coloration, but conserving the black lores and eyestripe
