Craugastor catalinae

Synonyms: Eleutherodactylus catalinae

Wikipedia Abstract

Craugastor catalinae is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is found in the Río Cotón drainage in Pacific southwestern Costa Rica and on the Pacific slopes of Volcán Barú, western Panama.Its natural habitats are streams in premontane and lower montane humid forests. This species was once common in Costa Rica, but has now disappeared from much of its range; it has also declined in Panama. In addition to habitat loss, the decline is assumed to be caused by chytridiomycosis.
