A small, inconspicuous seedeater with grey-brown plumage and a conical bill, grey seedeaters inhabit open grasslands, savanna, and rice fields across northern South America from Colombia and Venezuela to Trinidad and the Guianas.

Like many grassland seedeaters, grey seedeaters are poorly known ecologically and face ongoing pressure from agricultural conversion of native grasslands.
