Pristimantis loujosti is a small frog from the mountain forests of Ecuador. It belongs to the rain frogs and develops directly from the egg without a tadpole stage.
Pristimantis loujosti is distinguished by direct development and living in high cloud forests. It helps maintain the balance of insects in nature and serves as an indicator of the purity of mountain ecosystems.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
