Description
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]
Habitat
Ameerega parvula inhabits tropical and subtropical forests, wetlands (rivers, streams, creeks, waterfalls) usually from 330 to 1000 meters above sea level.[1]
