It is found in the Andes in Ecuador and Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forest and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. It is very similar to the white-winged brushfinch, but does not have white on the wings. The face of the bay-crowned brushfinch is also blacker than the white-winged brushfinch. As with most brushfinches, they are commonly found in pairs that quickly move from tree to tree.
The specific name seebohmi refers to Henry Seebohm.
