This species is known from two specimens collected in 1989 from a single site. An exhaustive, six-month herpetological survey of the entire Sierra de Agalta in 2006, in which 74 amphibian and reptile species were detected, failed to record this species (Castañeda 2006) and may indicate a population decline. In addition, the area where the species was collected has been converted from coffee plantation to pasture (McCranie 2011). Source: www.iucnredlist.org/details/summary/203556/0
