}}Pristimantis educatoris is a species of frogs found in Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia. It is similar to—and prior to its description in 2010—confused with Pristimantis caryophyllaceus.[1][2] The species was first found in 2002 while researchers were working on a way to save Panama's frogs from extinction from the deadly amphibian disease chytridiomycosis. The species was discovered in Omar Torrijos National Park in Coclé Province, Panama.[3][4]

Description

Pristimantis educatoris is a thin, long-limbed, small species of frog. Males measure {{convert|19|-|20|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length and females {{convert|21|-|37|mm|abbr=on}}. They have a relatively large head and big eyes. Their dorsal ground colour varies from light tan to medium brown.[3]

The female guards her eggs that hatch as fully developed froglets, without free-lifing tadpole stage. Clutch size is about 20 eggs and development takes about 24–28 days.[3]

Pristimantis educatoris occur in secondary forests with a well-developed understory of palms and herbaceous plants. They are active during the night and most often found perching on leaves about one metre above the ground.[3]
