Habitat
The rose-throated Tanager primarily inhabits the edges of semi-humid to humid forests and areas with dense scrubby undergrowth. This species can also adapt to more open areas that feature scattered trees and shrubby vegetation. It is usually found in habitats ranging from sea level up to approximately 250 meters in elevation, indicating a preference for lower altitude regions within broader tropical and subtropical environments.
