This frog lives in primary forest and undisturbed secondary forest. It breeds through larval development in stagnant water.[1]

Scientists classify this frog as of least concern of extinction because of its large range and presumed large population. However, it may face some threat from Malaysia's widespread deforestation, principally that associated with palm oil plantations and logging.[1]
