This diurnal frog has been found in bamboo and other forests. Some individuals have been spotted in disturbed habitats, such as regenerating forest. Scientists have seen this frog between 250 and 550 meters above sea level. [1]

Scientists have observed the frog within Manu National Park in Peru. They believe it may also live in Parque Nacional da Serra do Divisor in Brazil. [1]

Reproduction

Scientists infer that the tadpoles swim in streams like other tadpoles in Allobates do. [1]

Threats

The IUCN classifies this frog as least concern of extinction. What threat it faces comes from both corporate and small farms and from logging. [1]

The Brazil-nut poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the state of Pará in Brazil. The frog is believed to have received its common name from the fact that its tadpoles sometimes develop in the hard capsules of the Brazil nut tree, which are common in its range. The nuts fall to the forest floor where they are broken open by agoutis and other animals seeking the seeds, and empty husks fill with water.
