C'est l'espèce de dendrocygne la plus connue et la plus souvent élevée en captivité. L'espèce est largement répandue en Afrique et en Amérique du Sud. En Afrique on la rencontre partout au sud du Sahara y compris à Madagascar, elle évite cependant la corne de l'Afrique. En Amérique du Sud on la rencontre du Costa Rica jusqu'au nord de l'Argentine.
