It is found in the Western Ghats in the state of Kerala in India. It has been observed between 1000 and 1500 meters above sea level.[3][4] Its habitats include roadside vegetation and gardens.[1]
The adult male frog measures 23.2 - 25.2 mm in from nose to rear end and one female specimen 29.3 mm. The skin of the dorsum is light brown in color with darker brown marks. There is a dark brown mark on each side of the body, stretching from each front leg to each hind leg, meeting in the middle to make a V shape. There is a light brown intraorbital mark. Most of the snout is gray. There are many brown-black spots on the back. The iris of the eye is yellow-red in color with a gray rim.[4]
Scientists named this frog after Anil Zachariah, who assisted Dr. Biju.[5]
