Strabomantis ingeri, also known commonly as Inger's robber frog, is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. The species is native to Colombia.
S. ingeri is found on the eastern and western slopes of the Cordillera Oriental, Colombia (Cundinamarca, Santander, and Norte de Santander Departments). [2] [3] Its altitudinal range is 1,550–3,320 m (5,090–10,890 ft) asl. [3] It may also occur in adjacent Venezuela. [2]
S. ingeri is named after Robert F. Inger, an American zoologist from the Field Museum of Natural History. [4]
The natural habitat of S. ingeri is leaf-litter in cloud forest; it can occur in disturbed areas provided that small patches of forest remain nearby. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging and agricultural development. [1]
