Touit huetii has a highly disjunct range in northern South America. It is known from south
Venezuela, as well as the north-east of the country, with both populations considered rare and local, although it is often recorded along the Caño Colorado in east Monagas state (del Hoyo
et al. 1997, Hilty 2003, Restall
et al. 2006). There is a population in neighbouring
Guyana and
Suriname, also uncommon, whose range occasionally extends into Trinidad,
Trinidad and Tobago. It is local and rare in east
Colombia. Another population is at its northernmost in east
Ecuador, where again it is rare (del Hoyo
et al. 1997, Restall
et al. 2006).
This range continues through
east
Peru through extreme west
Brazil to north
Bolivia. It also occurs within Amazonian Brazil, from Rio Aripuanã east to Rio Tocantins, with a single record from Manaus (del Hoyo
et al. 1997).
