Range & habitat
This diurnal frog lives in riparian habitats. It has also been observed in streams in secondary forests, coffee farms, cocoa farms, and culverts near roads. Scientists observed the frog between 285 and 1168 meters above sea level. Scientists have not seen this frog in any protected parks, but there is a probable range overlap with Sierra de la Culata National Park.

What it does
The male frogs call to the female frogs. Scientists infer that this frog has young the same way other frogs in Mannophryne do: The female frogs lay eggs on land. After the eggs hatch, the male frogs carry the tadpoles to water.
