I asked Stuart Harris about this one who provided teh following information. "have seen it consistently in very dry habitat, often dirt and stones, gravel areas, granite or otherwise for the past decade or so. As far as I know it is still undescribed and is commonly referred to as the 'rockhopper'.
The Female is almost an ochre colour. It would fit under the family Euophryinae at present until it is described."
