Mallee Emu-wrens occur in among dense stands of Spinifex Triodia in mature mallee woodland associations.
Until recently, the Mallee Emu-wren was confined to the Murray Mallee region of north-western Victoria and eastern South Australia. However, since recent bushfires in SA, the species is now found only in Victoria, where it occurs in Murray–Sunset, Hattah-Kulkyne and Wyperfeld National Parks.
