Leptodactylus paraensis

The Pará  thin-toed frog (Leptodactylus paraensis) is a frog.  It lives in Brazil, in the states of Mato Grosso and Pará.

Body
The adult male frog is 99-129 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 118-140 mm long. The skin of the frog's back is dark with marks on it. There are dark triangles on the mouth.

Home
Scientists see this frog in rainforests that have never been cut down where the branches come together like a roof. People have also seen it in forests where people cut down some trees but never cut down the whole forest.

Scientists have seen these frogs in protected places, for example Tapajos National Forest.

Young
Scientists think this frog makes a nest out of bubbles for its eggs near bodies of water. After the eggs hatch, the tadpoles fall into the water.
