Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, intermittent freshwater marshes, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forests.

It is a very common species and the population is stable. Because of the large areas of suitable habitat still available to this species, there are currently no major threats. The potential spread of chytrid fungus remains a global threat to all frogs and toads, however. Data from 2007 shows that Peru’s Manú National Park, plus numerous protected areas in Bolivia (and presumably Brazil), are involved in this species' conservation.
