The bird is 5.5 inches (14 cm) in length, and has an unusually curved beak-(a specialist species). The ʻAkiapolaʻau is a pudgy bird that has a whitish bottom and tail, black legs, yellow chest, orangish head, black face mask and bill and grey black wings. The male's song is either a loud, short "pit-er-ieu" or a rapid "warba-warba." Its various calls include an upslurred whistle, a short "cheedle-ee" warble, and a short "sweet."
