This tanager is recorded in montane forest in Colombia and Ecuador, where it moves among foliage in small groups and mixed flocks.
Its plumage is olive to yellow-green, and the sexes look similar. Colombian records cited by the account are at about 500–1,050 m.
It gleans arthropods from moss- and epiphyte-covered branches and also eats fruit and flowers. The account notes Miconia among the recorded foods.
