The specific name fafniri is derived from Fafnir.[2] DescriptionChoerophryne fafniri is a comparatively large species: six unsexed individuals in the type series measure {{convert|21.0|-|22.2|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–urostyle length.[2] Later examination of five of these has revealed them to be males measuring {{convert|21.0|-|23.1|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length.[12] It is very similar to Choerophryne darlingtoni. The flanks and belly are orange to dark red and heavily blotched with brown. There are usually vague lumbar ocelli.[2]The male advertisement call has been described as a "slow buzz". Note length is comparatively long at about 650 ms. Pulse rate starts slow, then increases abruptly, before slowing again.[2] Habitat and conservationChoerophryne fafniri lives in mid-altitude montane rainforest at an elevation of about {{convert|2400|m|abbr=on}} above sea level. It is locally common. No major threats to it are known, although selective logging is a possible threat.[1]References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal | author = Richards, S. | author2 = Menzies, J. | title = Choerophryne fafniri | journal = IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume= 2004 | page = e.T57663A11670795 | year = 2004 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2004.RLTS.T57663A11670795.en }} [2][3][4]2. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://research.amnh.org/vz/herpetology/amphibia/Amphibia/Anura/Microhylidae/Asterophryinae/Choerophryne/Choerophryne-fafniri |title=Choerophryne fafniri (Menzies, 1999) |author=Frost, Darrel R. |year=2017 |work=Amphibian Species of the World: an Online Reference.
