Título: Red-backed Poison Frog (Ranitomeya reticulata)
Descripción: Ver traducción automática
Perhaps the poison frog that the Iquitos region of Peru is best known for is the Red-backed Poison Frog (Ranitomeya reticulata). This species inhabits lowland rainforest stands and can be patchy within its small range but within a patch it can be abundant. Unlike so many of its tiny relatives, this frog spends much of its time on the forest floor. When this species does venture into the lower canopy, it does so within one to three meters of the forest floor in a bromeliad or a tree hole or a leaf filled depression where branches meet a trees trunk. They deposit eggs in the leaf litter or sometimes even closer to phytotelmata (plant held waters), laying two or three eggs at a time. Once the eggs hatch, the male allows the tadpoles to squirm onto his back. They use a glue-like material to attach themselves to his back. Males will carry their tadpoles to phytotelmata. When the male crawls into the water source where the tadpoles will develop, the glue breaks down and the tadpoles
