Frostius pernambucensis is a small toad from the family Bufonidae. It lives only in the Atlantic forest in northeastern Brazil and leads a secretive nocturnal lifestyle.
Frostius pernambucensis is distinguished by its small body size and dependence on the humid Atlantic forest. The species helps control insect populations and serves as an indicator of the health of the forest ecosystem.
Catches prey with a quick lunge of the sticky tongue.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
