Both sexes have gray-brown lores, a short white line above them, and a thin white eye-ring on an otherwise grayish brown face. Their back and rump are grayish brown. Their wings are dark brown with thin buff edges on the flight feathers and wide buff tips on the wing coverts; the latter show as two wing bars. Their tail is dark brown. Voice: The mouse-gray flycatcher's dawn song is "a leisurely and hesitating 'weé, wu-du...weé, wu-du' " or "a hesitant, repetitive, series of rich whistles: tcheep...wee'bit...chew...tcheep...". Its call is "a fast 'whee-yee-yee-yee-yee' " or "a rapid laughing phrase: REEH-hi'hi'hi'hi'hi'hi'hi".
