Similar two-note calls have been heard in late afternoon and early evening, although there is no certainty that they belong to this species.

[4] Its natural habitat is closed-canopy forest at elevations of 1,000–2,340 m (3,280–7,680 ft) above sea level.

Males can be heard calling in the early evening from low herbaceous vegetation.

[1] It is threatened by habitat loss, primarily caused by logging (for charcoaling) and slash-and-burn agriculture.

[1] After not having been seen after 1991, the species was rediscovered during an expedition that was part of the Conservation International’s global search for "lost frogs".
