It was first described by Hellmayr in 1917. This furnariid is a resident throughout its range and is tied to montane evergreen forest, wind-pruned woodland, and the belt between them. It is recorded from several separate tepui localities, including Mount Roraima, Cerro Paraque, Cerro de la Neblina and sites in Bolívar and Amazonas states.
