Pristimantis paulodutrai is a very common frog living on low vegetation inside primary and secondary forest (up to 130m above sea level). It is not considered threatened (listed as "Least Concern") by the IUCN because of its wide distribution, tolerance of habitat modification, presumed large population, and the unlikelihood of imminent rapid decline.[1]
