This species is known only from Khao Daeng in Kui Buri District, in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, in Peninsular Thailand (Sumontha et al. 2017). Sumontha et al. (2017) suggests that it may be distributed on all limestone hills within Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park, however, it has so far not been found elsewhere (M. Sumontha pers. comm. 2017). This limestone formation is surrounded by many kilometres of flat land without karst outcrops (M. Cota pers. comm. 2017) and is the only locality for an apparently endemic species of Cnemaspis (Wood et al. 2017), all of which suggest this species is likely to be endemic to this locality. Tentatively listed as Critically Endangered on the basis that this species occurs at a single location defined by a threat from exploitation for the domestic - and potentially in future the international - pet trade, and there is a presumed decline in the number of mature individuals as a result of harvesting. Further research is nevertheless required to corroborate this, and may reveal that this listing is overly precautionary. This species is confined to a national park, and no threats other than exploitation have been identified.
