}}Yunganastes mercedesae is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is found in Bolivia and southern Peru. It is sometimes known as Mercedes' robber frog.[2] It is named after Mercedes S. Foster, who collected the holotype and was acknowledged for her herpetological collection efforts in South America.[3]

Description

Yunganastes mercedesae is a beautiful frog with a striking colour pattern: the dorsum is medium brown with irregular, light green splotches and some black marks, and black eyestripe and lip marks.[3] It is still known from relatively few individuals. Based on three adult males and two adult females, males measure {{convert|42|-|52|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length, whereas females are much larger at {{convert|62|-|63|mm|abbr=on}} SVL.[5]

Habitat

Yunganastes mercedesae is a rare frog inhabiting Andean cloud forests at moderate elevations (1400–1950 m).[4]
