Myers with the type locality given as water holes or ponds along the foot of the Serra de Petropolis in Rio de Janeiro State.[3] Deforestation and urbanisation led to the species disappearance from the area of its type locality and it was thought to be extinct but it was rediscovered Script error: No such module "convert". from the type locality some 70 years after the last known previous record.[4]
