Sachatamia albomaculata is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, western Colombia, and northwestern Ecuador. Its natural habitats are humid lowland and premontane forest from sea level to about 1,500 m (4,900 ft) above sea level. It typically occurs in bushes and trees along forest streams, but populations can persist even along streams in pastures with minimal riparian growth. It is a common species that can locally be threatened by habitat loss but is not facing major threats as a species. Wikipedia →

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-flecked Glassfrog sighting in Carara National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 21st most-seen of the 22 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-flecked Glassfrog in Carara National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May to December, the lowest months. That is one of Carara National Park's driest months, with about 180 mm of rain against 730 mm in October.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Yellow-flecked Glassfrog sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Among the best
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Yellow-flecked Glassfrog sightings, Carara National Park ranks 4th at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Corcovado National Park (Costa Rica, about 10%), Piedras Blancas National Park (Costa Rica, about 10%) and Tenorio Volcano National Park (Costa Rica, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow-flecked Glassfrog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Carara National Park (5 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.
