Galbula pastazae occurs in the foothills and subtropical zone of the Andean east slope in
Ecuador (Napo, Tungurahua, Morona-Santiago, Zamora-Chinchipe, Loja)
(Ridgely
et al. 1998), two adjacent east-slope valleys in
Colombia (Putumayo [P. G. W. Salaman
in litt. 1999] and Nariño), and the Cordillera del Cóndor in
Peru (Schulenberg and Awbrey 1997). Except in Podocarpus National Park, Loja, where it is described as fairly common, the species is generally uncommon
(Poulsen and Wege 1994, Schulenberg and Awbrey 1997
, Ridgely
et al. 1998) and local, and presumably declining as a result of habitat loss.
