The Green-backed Camaroptera (Camaroptera brachyura) is a warbler in the Cisticolidae family. This bird is a resident breeder in Africa south of the Sahara Desert. Recent studies suggest this species and the Grey-backed Camaroptera may be the same species.
This skulking passerine is typically found low in dense cover. The Green-backed Camaroptera binds large leaves together low in a bush and builds a grass nest within the leaves. The normal clutch is two or three eggs. The wings are olive and the underparts whitish grey. The sexes are similar. Like most members in the group, Green-backed Camaroptera is insectivorous.
