A re-examination of the historical records suggests that this species was rather generalist in its habitat preferences, with a preference for areas of savanna that were interspersed with palm "islands" and areas of riparian forest along river systems. It was a specialised feeder of palm fruits, particularly those of the chatay or yatay palm (Butia yatay), but it could also consume ripe and unripe fruit, nuts, berries and vegetables.
