Gorgeted Sunangel, likely territorial and found in damp bushy ravines, feeds primarily on low flowers, with occasional foraging in subcanopy areas, while staying close to cover and avoiding open spaces.

The gorgeted Sunangel predominantly inhabits humid and wet pre-montane forests, as well as adjacent shrubby forest borders and thickets. The species is typically found in subtropical zones, although it can also reside in temperate zones within broader geographical regions characterized by these general environmental conditions.
