It is endemic to Madagascar, where it inhabits forest environments including both humid eastern rainforests and drier western woodlands. This species is assessed as Near Threatened by the IUCN, reflecting population pressure from the ongoing loss and degradation of forest habitats across Madagascar. Clutch size typically ranges from 1 to 4 eggs. Detailed plumage and bill descriptions, as well as specific data on diet, nesting duration, and vocalizations, are limited in the available literature.
