Cochranella litoralis

Cochranella litoralis is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is known from the Pacific lowlands of southwestern Colombia (Cauca and Nariño Departments[3]) and northern Ecuador (Esmeraldas Province).[2][4] The specific name litoralis refers to the proximity of the type locality to the sea.[4]
Description
Adult males measure 19–20 mm (0.7–0.8 in) in snout–vent length; female size is unknown. The snout is truncated. The tympanum is visible and only slightly obscured by the supra-tympanic fold posterodorsally. The fingers have absent to moderate webbing (from inner to outer fingers). The toes are moderately webbed.[4] The dorsum is yellowish green and has dark gray spots. The ventral parietal peritoneum is white. Adult males have a visible small humeral spine. The pre-pollical spine is clearly separated from the first finger. The iris is gray and has no evident dark reticulation.[5]
Habitat and conservation
Centrolene litorale occurs in tropical lowland rainforests at elevations of 100–200 m (330–660 ft) above sea level. Reproduction is unknown but presumably takes place in streams. The Ecuadorian populations are threatened by logging.[1][4]
