On most mountains there are only 1–2 species from this genus, but five are known from Mount Ayanganna[3] and the neighbouring Mount Wokomung has six species.[4] They are usually found near streams at low levels on branches/leaves or on the ground among vegetation/rocks. They are famous for their breeding strategy where the development from eggs to froglets is completed on the back of the female (the eggs hatch to froglets; there is no free-swimming tadpole stage). The common name carrying frog is sometimes used for Stefania species and it refers to this behavior. A comparable behavior can also be seen in the other genera in the family Hemiphractidae. SpeciesThere are 19 Stefania species:[2] {{columns-list|colwidth=25em|
