Range & habitat
This terrestrial, diurnal frog is found on the forest floor. It is usually found near permanent or intermittent streams but can venture far from them. The frogs' principal diet includes ants. Scientists have observed the frog between 115 and 1700 meters above sea level. The frog's known range includes at least six protected parks: Juan Crisóstomo Falcón National Park, Morrocoy National Park, San Esteban National Park, Henri Pittier National Park, Yacambú National Park, and Guáquira Ecological Reserve. Scientists think it could live in Terepaima National Park, Tirgua National Park and Yasuni National Park too.
