Habitat
This diurnal, terrestrial frog is endemic to the Amazon biome, where it is found on the leaf litter in forests.[1]
The frog's range overlaps with known protected parks, including Floresta Nacional do Iquiri and Parque Estadual de Guajará-Mirím.[1]
Reproduction
Scientists infer that this frog cares for its young in the same manner as other species in Allobates: The female frog lays eggs on land. After the eggs hatch, the male frogs carry the tadpoles to water. As of 2023, this has yet to be conclusively observed.[1]
Threats
The IUCN classifies this frog as least concern of extinction and cites no specific threats.[1]
