Noble's Robber Frog (Craugastor noblei)

Image of Craugastor Cope 1862

Description:

From Amphibiaweb: This species is relatively uncommon, but widely distributed, and regularly seen in Costa Rica. The population at La Selva, Costa Rica appears to have experienced a decline (Whitfield et al., 2007). General habitat loss by the destruction of natural forests is a threat to this species. At La Selva, declines seem to be driven by climate-driven reductions in quantity of standing leaf litter (Whitfield et al., 2007). -- photographed at La Selva Biological Station, Costa Rica
