Its breeding range is in south-east Brazil, and it has been recorded in Ceará and Bahia. The species was once treated as part of the white-eared parakeet group. It is identified by a brown crown, a plum-red face, white ear coverts, and greyish underparts on the chin, throat and sides of the neck. Adults and young are similar.
