This diurnal, terrestrial frog has been found in small forest fragments. Although it has been observed near farms, scientists do not know its tolerance to habitat disturbance.[1]
Scientists have not observed the frog inside any protected parks but it has been found near Parque Nacional do Juruena.[1]
