The pol ... is also a threat. ''Strabomantis necerus'' has not been seen in Ecuador since 1995 and might be extinct there. Colombian record is based on re-examining a series of museum specimens, where it had been mixed with '' Strabomantis bufoniformis''; the curre ...

Strabomantis Anatipes
''Strabomantis anatipes'' (vernacular name: anatipes robber frog) is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is found in the Mira River drainage in extreme northern Ecuador and in adjacent southern Colombia ( Nariño, Cauca, and Valle del Cauca Departments) in foothills and lower cloud forest on the Pacific lowlands and slopes of the Cordillera Occidental. It altitudinal range is asl. The specific name refers to the extensive foot webbing of the species: it is a compound of the Latin ''anatis'' (of a duck) and ''pes'' (foot).
