The species is known only from the Top End of the Northern Territory, from Litchfield National Park eastwards to Kakadu National Park, in the Darwin Coastal bioregion. Its habitat is shrubby Callitrix woodland on sandstone.
Adults have been recorded in November, clinging to the stems and branches of Callitrix shrubs, uttering high-pitched calls characterised by a long buzz followed by a series of chirps and a soft terminal âÂÂtickâÂÂ.
