What a neat looking frog... there are such amazing creatures in the world :) Thanks for sharing this one, and congratulations on getting featured!

Nice frog~ It should be staying "overday" for a long period of time to have that tired eyes ^ ^ ...But i think it might be a Centrolene ilex instead of Centrolene callistommum, since callistommum should be endemic to Ecuador~

Thanks :) That is a cool frog!! She was alive when I photographed her, I'm sure she's fine. After letting me take a few photos, she jumped on a plant where she could hide herself. I didn't want to stress her too much, plus it started getting dark...
