Wana ngozi tupu kuzunguka macho yenye rangi ya buluu au majani. Majike wana rangi ya kahawa au majivu. Spishi za Neodrepanis zina domo lililopindika kama lile la chozi. Asiti wana mkia mfupi na ulimi uliogawanyika sehemu mbili. Hula matunda hasa lakini mbochi pia na pengine wadudu. Tago lao limefumika kwa manyasi, vitawi na nyuzinyuzi na lina umbo wa parachichi.
