Proceratophrys subguttata |
Proceratophrys subguttata is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. [2] [3] [1]
The frog has been found in the leaf litter in rainforests. Scientists observed the frog between 300 and 1000 meters above sea level. [1]
The frog's known range includes protected parks. [1]
The female frog leaves eggs in the backwaters of small streams. The tadpoles develop in the streams. [1]
The IUCN classifies this species as least concern. Habitat loss in favor of urbanization, agriculture, silviculture, and livestock grazing poses only a small because of the steep ground upon which the frog's remaining habitat rests. [1]
