Ololygon angrensis

Amphibians

Ololygon angrensis is a species of tree frog in the family Hylidae that is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers and ponds, and it is threatened by habitat loss. The species was first described by the Brazilian zoologist Bertha Lutz in 1973 as Hyla catharinae angrensis, a name that placed it as a form of Hyla catharinae. It was later treated as a species in its own right, called Hyla angrensis and then Scinax angrensis, and it is now placed in the genus Ololygon. The IUCN Red List assessment of 2023, carried out by the IUCN SSC Amphibian Specialist Group together with the Instituto Boitatá de Etnobiologia e Conservação da Fauna, is cited by Wikipedia for the species. The article is short, so detailed information on its size, call, breeding and diet is not stated in the sources read for this entry.
