}}Rhombophryne minuta is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to northern Madagascar.[1][3][ It has been mixed with other species such as Rhombophryne mangabensis; it is known with certainty only from the Marojejy National Park.[1]]DescriptionAs the specific name minuta suggests, Rhombophryne minuta is a small species: adult males are about {{convert|16|-|17|mm|abbr=on}} and females about {{convert|22|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length. The tympanum is indistinct. The dorsal skin is smooth to slightly granular. Colouration is quite variable; the dorsum is uniformly brown or with dark reticulations and yellowish spots. Flanks often bear small white dots. A largely yellowish specimen with a broad yellowish median stripe bordered by a dark line is also known. The venter has distinct or indistinct dark reticulations. Habitat and conservationRhombophryne minuta occur in lowland and montane rainforest, at elevations of about {{convert|1570|m|abbr=on}} above sea level. It is a fossorial and terrestrial species. Its forest habitat is threatened by subsistence agriculture, timber extraction, charcoal manufacture, spread of invasive species (eucalyptus), livestock grazing, and expanding human settlements. Illegal timber extraction has also occurred in the Marojejy National Park.[1] References 1. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal | author = IUCN SSC Amphibian Specialist Group | title = Rhombophryne minuta | journal = IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume= 2016 | page = e.T57975A67383260 | year = 2016 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2016-1.RLTS.T57975A67383260.en }}
