Description
Bandeirantes Snouted Tree Frog' is a nocturnal species of frog that employs impressive acrobatic maneuvers during their matting display, enthralling potential mates with high leaps and flips. Remarkably, they are, in fact, tree dwellers that adapt to ground living during their breeding season, enabling them to optimise their mating opportunities. These behaviors greatly contribute to their ecological role as insect controllers and their perpetuation, given their reduced stature.
