It is known to inhabit the primary and secondary lowland rainforest of Peninsular Malaysia and Borneo (Strange & Jeyarajasingam, 1993; Phillipps, 2014). It often moves around in small groups searching for insects and small berries at the middle and lower storeys of the forest. It also produces a 12-note cadence of ‘pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi’ (Strange & Jeyarajasingam, 1993; Jeyarajasingam & Pearson, 2012). This species has been categorized as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List due to habitat clearance (BirdLife International, 2020).
