Raorchestes archeos is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to India, where it has been observed in the Western Ghat mountains at about 1524 meters above sea level.[2][3][4][1]
This frog has been observed in grasses near the edges of forests and in disturbed forest near disturbed grassland.[1]
Scientists classify this frog as critically endangered because its range is only ten square kilometers and subject to continued degradation, especially deforestation in favor of coffee plantations.[1]
