Hyloxalus fascianigrus [2] is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia. [3] [4]
This terrestrial frog has been observed in leaf litter near streams in primary and secondary cloud forests, never in any non-forest habitat. Scientists observed this frog between 1470 and 1960 meters above sea level. [1] [3]
This frog's range includes several protected parks, including Munchique National Park, Los Farallones de Cali National Park, and Rio Anchicaya Forest Reserve. [1]
The female frog lays eggs on the ground. After the eggs hatch, the male frog carries them to water in streams or pools. [1]
The IUCN classifies this frog as vulnerable to extinction, with between 250 and 1000 mature individuals alive at any one time, as of a 2017 report by the Amphibian Specialist Gorup. They attribute the loss of population to the mass amphibian die-off associated with the fungal disease chytridiomycosis in the 1990s. The other principal threat to this frog is habitat fragmentation associated with cattle ranching and both legal and illegal agriculture. [1]
