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 ...

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]
