Dyeing poison dart frog (Dendrobates tinctorius) Most species of poison dart frogs are small, sometimes less than 1.5 cm (0.59 in) in adult length, although a few grow up to 6 cm (2.4 in) in length. They weigh 1 oz. on average. [7] Most poison dart frogs are brightly colored, displaying aposematic patterns to warn potential predators. Their ...

Dendrobates is a genus of poison dart frogs native to Central and South America. It once contained numerous species, but most originally placed in this genus have been split off into other genera such as Adelphobates, Ameerega, Andinobates, Epipedobates, Excidobates, Oophaga, Phyllobates and Ranitomeya (essentially all the brightly marked poison dart frogs; i.e. excluding the duller genera in ...

[4] Its skin secretes small amounts of pumiliotoxins which coat the frog and cause pain and mild muscle spasms if the frog is handled carelessly. The symptoms may be more severe if the frog is ingested, but unlike the Phyllobates and Oophaga species, R. sirensis ...
The Geminis' dart frog (Andinobates geminisae) is a species of poison-dart frog distinguished by its uniquely small size and memorable mating call. [1]Due to the recent and remote nature of its discovery, there is much about the adaptive behaviors and demography of the Geminis' dart frog yet to be studied. [2]
