The call is similar to that of Tomopterna tandyi but has higher repeat rate and two instead of one emphasized harmonics.

[4] The type series of the formerly recognized Tomopterna damarensis was collected from pools in a riverbed.

[2] The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has assessed this species as "data deficient" because of uncertainty concerning its range and ecological requirements,[1] later research has shown it to be relatively widespread and tolerant of a range of ecological conditions.

Large parts of its range enjoys nominal protection in the form of a series of community conservancies in Namibia.
