Leptodactylus latinasus (common name: oven frog, in Spanish urnero) is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is found in the Gran Chaco of northern Argentina, Bolivia, and Paraguay and east and south to southern Brazil and Uruguay.
These frogs inhabit Chaco, Pampa, and Atlantic Forest biomes. It can tolerate many different types of habitat and considerable anthropogenic disturbance. This frog is terrestrial and is usually found near water. Scientists observed the frog between 0 and 600 meters above sea level.
Scientists have reported the frog in many protected places: Reserva Natural Formosa, Chaco National Park, Mburucuyá National Park, El Rey National Park, Parque Nacional Calilegua, Paisaje Protegido Quebrada de los Cuervos, Paisaje Protegido Valle del Lunarejo, Cerro Verde Área de manejo de hábitats y/o especies, Humedales del Santa Lucia Área Protegida con Recursos Manejados, Laureles-Canias Managed Protected Area Resource, Sierra de San Javier Parque Universitario, Horco Molle Reserva Universitaria, Aguas Chiquitas Reserva Natural, Rio Los Sosa Reserva Natural, Iberá Reserva Natural Provincial, Bahía de Samborombón Reserva Natural Integral, El Gato...

Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report an Oven Frog sighting in Rosario on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report an Oven Frog in Rosario on a given day, against under 5% in January and May–September, the lowest months. That is one of Rosario's wettest months, with about 150 mm of rain against 20 mm in June.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Oven Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Oven Frog sightings, Rosario has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Buenos Aires (Argentina, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oven Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Rosario (10 verified sightings), 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.
