They inhabit montane regions of the Andean foothills of Peru, and are found farther south in that region. In the wild, these frogs inhabit warm, humid forest environments where they utilize bromeliads, tree holes, and other phytotelmata for breeding and tadpole development. Their semi-arboreal nature allows them to make extensive use of both vertical and horizontal space within the rainforest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis locality is known for its intricate patterning and striking contrast, typically displaying a vivid green body with black spotting adorned with light blue legs with black spotting.
