Collected at 800 m on Phnom Aural calling from on top of a boulder 0.2 m from a cascade of a mountian stream in hill evergreen forest. Many males were found along mountain streams from 500-1140 m in habitat with evergreen forest. Males were always observed within 1m of the stream and usually no further than 0.3 m from fast-flowing water.
