[4] Buergeria robusta is a common and widespread species found at low to medium altitudes.

[1][5] The genetic landscape of Buergeria robusta presents high congruence to the topography of Taiwan; populations on the eastern and western sides of the Central Mountain Range showed a prominent genetic divergence.

The colour varies with the environment from brown or gray to greenish and to even yellow.

[5] Breeding season is from February to September, when males can be found sitting and calling on tops of rocks.

Eggs are deposited directly in water, without making a foam nest.
