[4] The specific name boehmei honors Wolfgang Böhme [de], for "his support of the scientific careers of all authors from early days on".

[2] The male advertisement call is a series of indistinctly pulsed, upward modulated notes.

[2] Ameerega boehmei are associated with rocky areas of open Cerrado grassland at elevations of 500–1,200 m (1,600–3,900 ft) above sea level.

They are diurnal and commonly occur close to slowly running streams, but can also be found as far as 50 m from a waterbody.

The adults will later transport the tadpoles to shallow pools and temporary puddles where they develop further.
