Habitat and conservation

Adelophryne baturitensis is a diurnal leaf-litter species that can be locally common; it can be found in dry or moist leaf-litter on the ground, in bromeliads, and stream margins in reasonably well-preserved closed forests, but also surviving in shaded coffee plantations, at elevations of Шаблон:Convert above sea level. The Pernambuco locality is an Atlantic Rainforest remnant.

The species is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging, agriculture, and human settlement; it occurs in areas of good soil and climate, favoring agricultural expansion.
