The Verditer Flycatcher is primarily found in the northern regions, including the Himalayan foothills and adjacent areas. It prefers wooded habitats, often inhabiting forests, shrublands, and areas near streams or water bodies.

This bird species is known for its agile flight and active foraging behavior. It feeds primarily on insects, catching them on the wing or from foliage. The Verditer Flycatcher often perches in elevated positions, from where it can spot prey and launch aerial pursuits. During the breeding season, males may engage in territorial displays to attract mates. They build cup-shaped nests in trees or shrubs, where females lay eggs and both parents participate in incubation and chick-rearing duties.
