This unusual rail can be quite tame, and is often found well away from water. The upperparts are olive-brown, the underparts are rufous, and the bright white undertail is often revealed when the tail is flicked up while walking. Found in montane habitats, including wetlands, scrub, and heath. Within its small range, unlikely to be confused with other rails. Calls include a two-part “ki-kee” and a rising “krrreeeee.”
