The yellow-tinted honeyeater is a species of bird in the Meliphagidae family.
It is found in Australia and Papua New Guinea.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical mangrove forests.

The yellow-tinted honeyeater was previously included in the genus ''Lichenostomus'' but was moved to ''Ptilotula'' after a molecular phylogenetic analysis published in 2011 showed that the original genus was polyphyletic.
