Ameerega parvula is a species of poison dart frog that lives in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. [1]
The size of Ameerega parvula ranges between 17.5 and 24 mm. Mature frogs display a black base color and a dark red spotted back. Their body and limb undersides exhibit either black with blue marbling or blue with black marbling. The marbling pattern extends partially onto the body's sides. Additionally, there is an unfinished light blue stripe that starts at the forelimbs, runs along the upper lip, and concludes near the outer edge of the eye or nostril. [1]
Ameerega parvula inhabits tropical and subtropical forests, wetlands (rivers, streams, creeks, waterfalls) usually from 330 to 1000 meters above sea level. [1]
The dyeing dart frog, dyeing poison dart frog, tinc, or dyeing poison frog is a species of poison dart frog. It is among the largest species, reaching lengths of 50 mm (2.0 in). This species is distributed throughout the eastern portion of the Guiana Shield and Venezuela, including parts of Guyana, Suriname, Brazil, and nearly all of French Guiana.
Hyloxalus whymperi, sometimes known as the Tanti rocket frog, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to west-central Ecuador and only known from Tanti and near San Francisco de Las Pampas, Pichincha Province. It is a poorly known species.
The pleasing poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae endemic to Peru. The specific name bassleri honors Harvey Bassler, an American geologist and paleontologist.
Ameerega braccata, formerly Epipedobates braccatus, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Central-West Region of Brazil and is known from southern Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, and southwestern Goiás states; however, it is likely that its true range extends into adjacent Bolivia and Paraguay.
The Cainarachi poison frog is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Amazonian Peru and found in the lowlands adjacent to the northern end of the Eastern Andes. It was named after the Rio Cainarache Valley, where it was first discovered.
Lutz's poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae found in Bolivia and Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, moist savanna, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, and rocky areas. Reproduction occurs in rocky pools and streams. Eggs are laid under a rock and the male transports tadpoles to wet trenches or small rocky pools. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Ameerega hahneli is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found in the Amazonian lowlands of Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana, and Suriname. It is named after Paul Hahnel, the collector of the type series.
Ameerega ingeri, sometimes known as the Niceforo's poison frog, Brother Niceforo's poison frog, or Inger's poison frog, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Colombian Amazon. It is known with certainty only from its type locality in the Caquetá Department. Records from the Putumayo Department ascribed to this species likely refer to Ameerega bilinguis, although other sources continue to include Putumayo in the range of Ameerega ingeri.
The Peru poison frog, also known as Peruvian poison frog, Peruvian poison-arrow frog and emerald poison frog, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found in eastern Peru and western Brazil. Its natural habitats are primary premontane and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes.
The spot-legged poison frog is a species of dendrobatid frog found in Bolivia, Brazil, Peru, and Venezuela. Its habitat includes tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, especially freshwater swamp forests.
The Oxapampa poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae endemic to Peru near Oxapampa, in the Pasco Region. Its natural habitat is montane tropical rainforest. It is a very rare species threatened by habitat loss.
Silverstone's poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers.
Ameerega trivittata, formerly Epipedobates trivittatus, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae commonly known as the three-striped poison frog. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, Venezuela, possibly Ecuador, and possibly French Guiana.
Ameerega is a genus of poison dart frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. These frogs live around rocks that are nearby streams. They are found in central South America north to Panama. It contains many former species of the genus Epipedobates.
Ameerega yoshina is a species of poison frogs found in central Peru. It was found in the Huallaga Province. It resembles A. bassleri and A. pepperi, but can be differentiated by its advertisement call being slower than its relatives; approximately one-half the speed of A. bassleri and one-quarter the speed of A. pepperi.
Ameerega pepperi is a species of poison frogs found in central Peru. It has a red dorsum and is similar morphologically to A. bassleri, A. cainarachi and A. yoshina; but can be distinguished by its advertisement call.
Ameerega ignipedis is a species of poison frog found in central Peru. It is similar to Ameerega petersi, but differs from the latter in call and size, by having allopatric distributions, and by not being close relatives. It is also similar in appearance to A. pongoensis, although the latter doesn't possess flash marks above its groin and has a different call. It is also related to A. bassleri, a much larger species which usually possesses a yellow or orange dorsum.
Ameerega shihuemoy, the Amarakaeri poison frog, is a species of dart frog endemic to a small region in southeastern Peru in the Manú District where it lives in the transition zone between montane rainforest and the lowland rainforest. The frog is a member of the Ameerega picta group. It was discovered at the Manú Learning Centre where it is known to occur in pieces of selectively logged forest. This species is threatened by habitat loss due to agriculture, gold mining, oil extraction, road construction, and logging. Currently the frog is only known from nine locations globally; three sites in the Manú Biosphere Reserve, and six in Amarakaeri Communal Reserve. Initially it was considered for a status of vulnerable or near-threatened, but due to its low number of known localities it has been considered endangered.
Ameerega boehmei is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Chiquitania region in the Santa Cruz Department, Bolivia, where it is known from two isolated sandstone massifs, Serranía de Santiago and Serranía de Chochis. It is similar to Ameerega flavopicta and has been confused with that species. The specific name boehmei honors Wolfgang Böhme, for "his support of the scientific careers of all authors from early days on". Common name Boehmei's poison arrow frog has been proposed for this species.
Ameerega rubriventris is a small species of poison dart frog that lives in Peru in secondary wet forests described in 1997. It can be found at an elevation of 350–1000 m.
