Wikipedia Abstract

With female snout–vent length of about 88 mm (3.5 in), it is the largest eleutherodactylid frog. Eleutherodactylus inoptatus is a common frog found in mesic hardwood forests. It can also live in coffee and banana plantations as long as there are trees and shade. It is impacted by habitat loss.
