These frogs are endemic to western Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, dry savanna, moist savanna, intermittent rivers, and intermittent freshwater marshes. They are docile and can cohabitate with other tomato frogs.
