Geographic Distribution within Argentina: Northern Misiones, with a curious focal distribution of limited territories.

Habitat: Mid to upper canopy in both open and dark forests.

Behavior: Males often group in pairs or more to perform rituals to compete for females, hence the name "Dancer". Very territorial, passive, and hidden, with a loud and melodic voice.
