Possible resident in the lower central parts of Diamer district, near Kohistan and Malakhand. Occurs in montane forests; inhabits both broadleaf and coniferous forest, especially open forest with shrubbery and glades. Optimum zone 1500-2100m.
Forages chiefly in mid-canopy; although forages in low bushes, rarely descends to ground level. Feeds restlessly within outer foliage, frequently flicking wings and flashing tail; gleans items from foliage. Feeds almost entirely on tiny spiders and insects, including small caterpillars; small berries also taken.
