Boulengers Stubfoot Toad (Atelopus boulengeri)

Amphibians

Boulengers stubfoot toad is a small species of true toad in the family Bufonidae endemic to humid montane forest in southern Ecuador. It has not been documented since 1984, though it may persist in areas that have not been thoroughly surveyed. The IUCN lists it as critically endangered, citing habitat destruction and chytridiomycosis as its primary threats. The source article is a stub with no recorded size or further appearance detail beyond noting it as a small toad, so this description stops at what the lead actually supports.
