The specific name brunhildae is derived from Brunhild.[2] DescriptionNine unsexed individuals in the type series measure {{convert|16.7|-|20.1|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–urostyle length.[2] Examination of six of these revealed one female and five males. For snout–vent length, their size range is {{convert|17.8|–|21.1|mm|abbr=on}}.[13] Choerophryne brunhildae shares the general appearance of other former Albericus species: brown dorsum with lighter or darker irregular mottling, warty dorsal skin, and short and road head with blunt snout and relatively large eyes. Distinctive features of this species are conspicuous lumbar ocelli and ventrum that is densely stippled dark and light all over. One specimen was slightly greenish on the head.[2] The male advertisement call has been described as a "rubbery squeak". Note length is about 500 ms, and pulse rate varies within a note.[2] Habitat and conservationChoerophryne brunhildae lives in forest habitats and is sometimes seen in rural gardens.[1] It has been recorded at elevations between {{convert|1000|–|1920|m|abbr=on}} above sea level.[7] It can be locally common. No major threats to it are known as it seems to tolerate some habitat modification and plenty of suitable habitat remains.[1]References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite journal | author = Richards, S. | author2 = Menzies, J. | author3 = Kraus, F. | title = Choerophryne brunhildae | journal = IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume= 2006 | page = e.T57661A11660786 | year = 2006 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2006.RLTS.T57661A11660786.en }} [2][3][4][5]2. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://research.amnh.org/vz/herpetology/amphibia/Amphibia/Anura/Microhylidae/Asterophryinae/Choerophryne/Choerophryne-brunhildae |title=Choerophryne brunhildae (Menzies, 1999) |author=Frost, Darrel R. |year=2017 |work=Amphibian Species of the World: an Online Reference.
