The dorsal surface of this frog is pale greyish-brown with a central double arrowhead pattern of darker brown and dark, blackish sides.

Its eyes are located on the sides of its head and the spiracle is central and sheathed with a flap of skin.

These include the Batu Caves, the Taman Negara National Park, and the Sekayu waterfalls in Trengganu-Berry.
