Allobates peruvianus is a species of frog in the family Aromobatidae. It is found in Peru where it occurs on the lower Amazonian slopes of the Andes; its range possibly extends into adjacent Bolivia and Ecuador. [2] [3] [1]
Its natural habitats are lowland and premontane forests. It has been observed between 400 and 1500 meters above sea level. [2] [1]
The female frog lays eggs on the ground. After the eggs hatch, the adult frogs carry the tadpoles to temporary pools of water. [1]
The IUCN classifies this frog as data deficient. Scientists infer that it is threatened by habitat loss associated with agriculture and logging. [1]
