[4] However, the apparent rarity of the species could simply be caused by poor detectability associated with its small size and arboreal habits.
[4][5] Habitat loss and modification, caused by aquaculture, agriculture (coffee), infrastructure, and harvest of forest products, are occurring inside the Bidoup Núi Bà National Park.
[1] Scientists speculate that people might harvest this frog for the international pet trade, but it is so difficult to see with the naked eye that this may not be an issue.
