Range & habitat
This diurnal, riparian frog lives near streams on mountains and in low places. It has also been found in metal water culverts, so scientists believe it may tolerate some habitat disturbance. Scientists saw the frog between 131 and 734 meters above sea level. The frog's known range overlaps with one protected park: Guatopo National Park.

What it does
The male frogs hide under rocks and call to the female frogs. Scientists infer that the female frog lays eggs on the leaf litter near streams. After the eggs hatch, the male frogs carry the tadpoles to water.
