Description

Estas ranas pueden alcanzar los diez centímetros de longitud corporal, siendo las hembras ligeramente mayores que los machos. También parecen ser más grandes los ejemplares de zonas donde las estaciones secas son más largas y acusadas en contraste de 3:1. Se alimentan de insectos y viven entre los follajes de los árboles cerca de ríos o cuerpos de agua,aunque también soportan sequías pero permanecen ocultas del calor y la radiación uv.
