Ranitomeya
''Ranitomeya'' is a genus of dart poison frogs found in Panama and South America south to Peru and Brazil, possibly into Bolivia. Taxonomy In 2006 Grant ''et al.'' revised the systematics of poison dart frogs and placed many species formerly classified in the genera ''Dendrobates'', '' Minyobates'' and ''Phyllobates'' in ''Ranitomeya''. In 2011 Brown and colleagues, following other scientists who assumed the existence of two distinct clades in ''Ranitomeya'', erected the genus '' Andinobates'' for 12 species of ''Ranitomeya''. ''Ranitomeya'' and ''Andinobates'' frogs can be distinguished from those in genera such as ''Dendrobates'' in that they are generally smaller, have more than two colors, and seem to glitter if viewed from certain angles. ''Ranitomeya'' is widespread in the Amazon basin, whereas ''Andinobates'' species are found only in the northern Andes down to Central America. Description Adults measure no more than in snout–vent length and are typically brightly colo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Zimmerman's Poison Frog
''Ranitomeya variabilis'', formerly known as ''Dendrodates variabilis'', is a species of small poison dart frog distributed in northern Peru, along the eastern slope of Anes in the upper Rio Huallaga drainage basin. Its common name, Zimmerman’s poison frog, is named after Elke Zimmermann, a German zoologist who described the morph of this species and differentiated it from '' D. Ventrimaculatus''. The species was formerly considered to be synonymous with '' Ranitomeya ventrimaculata''. ''Ranitomeya variabilis'' usually has a bright yellow body with deep blue limbs, and black spotted or stripes across the ventral side of the body. The colors change in some geographic locations. ''R. variabilis'' has different mimicry relationships with two other species. Like other frogs in the same family, ''R. variabilis'' has toxic skin alkaloid which repels potential predators. ''R. variabilis'' are cannibalistic even as tadpoles, so adult male parents may allow tadpoles to jump on their ba ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ranitomeya Summersi
''Ranitomeya summersi'', sometimes referred to as Summers' poison frog, is a species of poison dart frogs found in the central Huallaga River drainage and adjacent Cordillera Azul National Park in central Peru. Before 2008, the species was considered a subspecies of ''Ranitomeya fantastica''. The IUCN considers it an endangered species because of limited habitat range, habitat loss, and collection for the pet trade. They lay their eggs primarily in ''Dieffenbachia'' plants and in holes in trees. Morphology ''Ranitomeya summersi'' is one of the larger species of poison dart frogs. It has an orange and black banded pattern and a large snout to vent length. Males and females exhibit no sexual dimorphism in snout to vent length, exhibiting a range from 15.5 mm to 20.4 mm. This species possesses a black marking over the eyes extending past the tympanum giving them the appearance of a mask. The species is a Batesian mimicry of Ranitomeya Variabilis ''Ranitomeya'' is a genus of da ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
