Zoothera erythronota is restricted to Sulawesi and neighbouring Buton (race
erythronota) and Kabaena (race
kabaena),
Indonesia (Robinson-Dean
et al. 2002, Collar 2004). It is uncommon but easily overlooked on Buton, locally common on Kabaena (Robinson-Dean
et al. 2002)
, and generally uncommon on Sulawesi (although population estimates are often dramatically increased once mist-netting is undertaken). Although there is not enough information to accurately assess its population size, since it appears to be somewhat patchily distributed throughout its range - often absent from apparently suitable habitat - it may prove to be quite low.
