Osteocephalus leprieurii
—
Common Bromeliad Treefrog
Some other names for this species:
Cayenne Slender-legged Treefrog


A pair of these large treefrogs spent their days nestled in nooks and crannies outside our room at Uakari Lodge, and their nights squawking their throats out a few feet from my bed.
Here is an account of the four days we spent at Uakari Floating Lodge in the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve.
