It is a nocturnal, arboreal species. It occurs in semi-deciduous premontane moist and cloud forests, and evergreen forest of the Cordillera de la Costa and Sierra de Aroa in Venezuela (Manzanilla et al. 1995, Lotzkat 2007). Individuals of this species have been found on vegetation (particularly bromeliads) at night (Manzanilla et al. 1995). Lotzkat (2007) sighted a specimen apparently feeding on ants. It is a direct developing species.
