This finch was nomadic, mating when food was plentiful, frequently observed in small flocks, and greatly sought after by birdwatchers due to its unique contact cries.

This subspecies of red crossbill, along with the one found in Vietnam, is endemic to the high-elevation pine forests of Northern Luzon, Philippines, particularly in the Cordillera and Zambales Mountains.
