It is endemic to China. Its natural habitats are temperate forest and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest below 2000 meters of altitude.[3] It is also present in urban green spaces.[3]
[4] Male yellow- bellied tits are very territorial, but they have a mutual respect for their neighbors. This is called the “dear- enemy” effect, since the birds respect each other's territory and want to maintain friendships.
Individuals tend to demonstrate a preference for one leg or the other ("footedness").[5]
