The species is in danger of extinction. DescriptionThe frog is dark brown with orange flecks across its body[2]. The amount of these flecks vary in number[3]. This allows them to blend in with their environment. They have a claw at the sides of their thumbs. This may allow them to puncture the skin of competitors or predators[4]. EtymologyThe species was named after American-Danish biologist, David Hillis[5].
