This species is known to be from central and southern Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, south to southern Gabon (M. Burger pers. comm.) and from northern Democratic Republic of the Congo (Penner and Rdel 2007). It presumably occurs in Central African Republic and Congo and these are included in the species distribution on the map. The subspecies Cardioglossa gratiosa paternageli has been described from Minim in the Adamawa Plateau of Cameroon, indicating that the animals from the uplands in the northern part of the range of this species perhaps belong to a different subspecies. It presumably occurs up to at least 1,200 m asl, perhaps higher.
