It was also found in Bongaigaon, western Assam; Pakhui Wildlife Sanctuary, East Kameng District, Arunachal Pradesh; and Bong Basti village, Chilapata Range, West Bengal. [1] It may also be found in southern Bhutan. [3]

Nanorana gammii(Anderson, 1871) was until quite recently (2006) considered a synonym of Nanorana annandalii but is now treated as a separate species; this change confounds older records of Nanorana annandalii. This species lives in rocky streams and brooks in montane forests. It can also be found near pools in forest clearings. It is threatened by habitat loss (deforestation).
