It is found in Argentina, Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Suriname, and eastern border regions of Venezuela–two separate regions; also Peru.

A minor disjunct population is in Peru, and the Argentinian population is found in the tongue of land between Paraguay and southern Brazil.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montanes.
