Overview

A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.

Arthroleptis troglodytes faces severe threats from habitat destruction and fragmentation due to agricultural expansion, logging, and human settlement in its limited range. The species' specialized cave and forest habitat requirements make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes, while its restricted distribution increases extinction risk from localized threats.
