The grey-headed sunbird (Deleornis axillaris) is a small passerine bird which breeds in mixed forest in Zaire, Uganda and Tanzania.
This sunbird is sometimes treated as a subspecies of Fraser's sunbird, Deleornis fraseri, but is not known to intergrade. Both taxa are sometimes placed in Anthreptes.
