Description
Habitat
Ecology: It is an explosive and restricted
breeder with activity restricted to a few days at the beginning of the rainy season
(hence making it potentially difficult to locate at other times). It breeds
in swamps
or temporary puddles, and probably does not adapt well to anthropogenic
disturbance
