Aromobates haydeeae
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Aromobates haydeeae faces severe threats from ongoing habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion and urban development within its extremely limited range in Venezuela's Cordillera de la Costa. The species' restriction to a single mountain system makes it particularly vulnerable to localized environmental changes and human activities. Climate change poses an additional threat by potentially altering the specific microclimatic conditions required by this endemic frog species.
Habitat
This species inhabits cloud forests and montane humid forests in Venezuela's Cordillera de la Costa, typically found in areas with high humidity and stable temperatures. It occurs in leaf litter and low vegetation within primary and secondary forest fragments at elevations between 800-1,200 meters.
