#brachcephalus

Red Pumpkin Toadlet (Brachycephalus pitanga), family Brachycephalidae, endemic to Atlantic Rainforest in Sao Paolo State, SE Brazil

Poisonous.

As with other Brachycephalus sp., they lay a few eggs in moist terrestrial locations, and the young live as tadpoles in the eggs, and then hatch out as froglets.

Adults reach a max. snout vent length of up to 14 mm (0.55 in).

They are actually unable to hear their own advertisement calls, as their ears are underdeveloped.

They also do not hop, but instead slowly crawl across the forest floor.
