[1][2][3] It is found in the West African savanna zone in Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Niger, and Nigeria.

[4] Kassina fusca have been found in nests of pomerine ants Paltothyreus tarsatus and Megaponera analis.

These ants are large (up to 18 and 25 mm in body length, respectively) and have powerful mandibles, poison glands, and stings, and would be able to kill the frog.

[6] The benefit of this association is that the ant nests provide Kassina fusca hiding places that remain moist during the dry season; such places are in short supply in the savanna and tend to be occupied by ants.

Breeding takes in temporary water, preferably large, well-vegetated, shallow pools.
