Distribution
Reliably known from two sites in northern Madagascar: (1) the type locality Marojejy (Camp Mantella, at low elevation), and (2) a site between Andrakata and Andapa also located at rather low elevation; individuals from (3) Ambodivoangy at the north-eastern edge of the Makira Reserve, at ca. 30 m elevation are provisionally assigned to this species based on evidence from nuclear genes, despite their assignment to Guibemantis razandry based on mitochondrial DNA.
