Craugastor Andi
''Craugastor andi'' is a species of rain frog in the family Craugastoridae which has not been seen since 1990. It is found in the Caribbean drainage of Costa Rica in the mountains and hills of the Cordillera Central and the far northeastern Cordillera de Talamanca, and in extreme northwestern Panama. Frank and Ramus (1995) give it the vernacular name Atlantic robber frog. It is known locally in Spanish by the generic names, used for many species, of ''rana de hojarasca'', ''ranita'' or ''sapito''. Taxonomy This species was first described in 1974 by Jay M. Savage as ''Eleutherodactylus andi'', who split it from the no longer recognised waste-basket taxon ''E. palmatus''. The holotype was collected at , some north from the juncture of the Claro River and the Hondura River, in Vázquez de Coronado canton, San Jose Province, Costa Rica. Stephen Blair Hedges classified it in the subgenus ''Craugastor'' in 1989. A phylogenetic analysis using DNA by Crawford and Smith, published ...

Craugastor Augusti
''Craugastor augusti'' is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae found in Mexico and the southern United States. It is known by various common names but most commonly as the barking frog (also common robber frog, cliff frog). The nominal species likely includes more than one species, sometimes described as subspecies such as the common barking frog (''Craugastor augusti augusti''), western barking frog (''Craugastor augusti cactorum''), and eastern barking frog (''Craugastor augusti latrans''). The epithet ''augusti'' is in honor of renowned French zoologist Auguste Duméril. It is called the ''barking frog'' because its call sounds like the barking of a small dog, although vocalizations vary by area. It is an abundant species in Mexico but apparently rare in the United States. However, they are very difficult to detect unless they are calling, which only occurs during few nights after rains. Description Adult ''Craugastor augusti'' measure . They have a characteristic ...

Craugastor Fitzingeri
''Craugastor fitzingeri'' is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in northwestern Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, eastern Nicaragua, and northeastern Honduras. The specific name ''fitzingeri'' honors Leopold Fitzinger Leopold Joseph Franz Johann Fitzinger (13 April 1802 – 20 September 1884) was an Austrian zoologist. Fitzinger was born in Vienna and studied botany at the University of Vienna under Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin. He worked at the Vienna Naturhis ..., an Austrian zoologist. Common name Fitzinger's robber frog has been coined for this species. Description Adult males measure and adult females in snout–vent length. The snout is subacuminate in dorsal view. The tympanum is prominent. The fingers and the toes bear discs; the toes are moderately webbed. Skin typically bears warts and ridges. The dorsal coloration varies from gray-brown to brown to orange-brown. Some individuals have a wide, light middorsal stripe. Most individuals have only ...

Craugastoridae
Craugastoridae, commonly known as fleshbelly frogs, is a family of New World direct-developing frogs. As delineated here, following the Amphibian Species of the World, it contains 129 species. They are found from the southern United States southwards to Central and South America. Taxonomy The taxon was created by Stephen Blair Hedges, William Edward Duellman and Matthew P. Heinicke in 2008. The taxonomy of these frogs is not yet settled, and other sources may treat the subfamily Strabomantinae as a family, Strabomantidae, with correspondingly smaller Craugastoridae. The family was rearranged in 2014, and more recently in 2021. Life history With the possible exception of ''Craugastor laticeps'' that may be ovoviviparous, craugastorid frogs have direct development: no free-living tadpole stage is known; instead, eggs develop directly into small froglets. Genera Two genera are recognised in the family Craugastoridae: * ''Craugastor'' Cope, 1862 (126 species) * ''Haddadus'' Hedges, ...

Behavior ''C. campbelli'' is typically found at night, perched on leaves above the ground. Reproduction ''C. campbelli'' reproduces by direct development Marine larval ecology is the study of the factors influencing dispersing larvae, which many marine invertebrates and fishes have. Marine animals with a larva typically release many larvae into the water column, where the larvae develop before metam .... References ...

Craugastor Amniscola
''Craugastor amniscola'' is a species of frogs in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in western Guatemala and in Chiapas, Mexico.
