This frog, of the family Nectophrynoides, is one of 15 species of amphibians we have never known. The Frontier Nature Reserve (UK) found them in a survey in Tanzania.
Although it belongs to the family Nectophrynoides, this frog species still has no name. Biologists of the Museum of Natural History in London and some Italian scientists are studying them.
In addition to unique characteristics and colors, biologists believe that Nectophrynoides is unique in that female frogs lay off their eggs and not lay eggs.
Scientists think these frogs only live in remote valleys deep in the forest in eastern Tanzania.
This frog belongs to the family Probreviceps. They like to live in the dark and have long noses. Their habitats are increasingly narrowed by deforestation.
The animal is apparently very similar to the Parker tree frog, but researchers believe it belongs to the Leptopelis family, which lives in a higher elevation area than the Parker habitat.
