This species is diurnal and terrestrial. During mating season both female and male frogs gather around treefall pools. It is found in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, and Bolivia.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It has also been found in open areas in secondary forest and on cacao plantations. The species listed as least concern on the IUCN Red List and the population is stable.
Similar to many other frog species, female Perez's snouted frogs (E. perezi) are larger than males. Males are on average 28–36 mm (1.1–1.4 in) in size and the females are 35–40 mm (1.4–1.6 in). The general color of this frog is very similar to leaf litter, which is a cryptic color protection in its habitat. Dorsum skin color is brown and there are usually many random dark brown markings on the back, such as tubercles and longitudinal ridges. Distinct characteristics of this frog... Wikipedia →

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Perez's Snouted Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Amacayacu National Natural Park (6 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
