There are similar frogs in India, Myanmar, and Thailand, but scientists suspect these are a complex of related species.

[2][3][1] This frog lives in montane and submontane moist forests, where it has been observed on the ground and on low vegetation.

[1] This frog breeds through larval development in pools of water.

What little disturbance it faces comes from habitat loss, largely in favor of agriculture, and forest tourism.

[1] The frog's range includes several protected parks, for example Dayaoshan National Nature Reserve.
