Frogs of the Staurois genus are to be found in Borneo and the Philippines, where some species are referred to as 'Splash Frogs'. 

Their preferred habitats are streams and gullies in damp, lush rainforests. This photograph of Staurois natator was taken by a small waterfall, in a narrow stream gully feeding into the Belalong River in Ulu Temburong National Park, Brunei.
