Geotrygon leucometopia occurs on the Cordillera Central, Sierra de Baoruco and Sierra de Neiba in the
Dominican Republic (Baptista
et al. 1997, S. Latta
in litt. 1998, Raffaele
et al. 1998). There are local reports from the 1920s of a rare, grey quail-dove near the summit of Morne La Selle in Haiti, but intensive habitat destruction has probably extirpated any hypothetical populations (Baptista
et al. 1997). It remains locally fairly common on the Sierra de Baoruco (Baptista
et al. 1997), but is still only known from eleven localities there and in the Cordillera Central; it is thought to have been extirpated from the Sierra de Neiba (S. Latta
in litt. 1998, Garrido
et al. 2002, Latta
et al. 2006).
