It is endemic to Mexico, where its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. It is more abundant in second growth than in undisturbed forest.  We found them easily on our shore excursion in Huatulco.  Oaxaca is also popular according to Xeno-canto.
