The specific name, austini, is in honor of American herpetologist Christopher C. Austin. [2]
The preferred natural habitat of E. austini is forest, at altitudes of 450–1,100 m (1,480–3,610 ft). [1]
E. austini may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 7.5 cm (3.0 in). Dorsally, it is bronze brown. [2]
