Scinax berthae is one of the smallest frogs in the world. The body length of adult individuals is only 16–20 millimeters.
Scinax berthae differs from other frogs by its very small body size. It is important for nature because it eats harmful insects and serves as food for birds and snakes.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
