Meru stream frog has been coined for it. On Mount Meru, it occurs at elevations of 1,000–3,000 m (3,300–9,800 ft) above sea level. It is associated with streams in both upper montane forest and afro-alpine heathland; however, juveniles may venture into the forest, far from streams. It is locally abundant on Mount Meru where its range is protected by the Arusha National Park.
