Noblella bagrecito
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Noblella bagrecito faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion and infrastructure development in its limited montane forest range. The species' extremely restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized environmental changes, with deforestation and land conversion for cattle ranching representing the primary drivers of population decline. Climate change poses an additional threat by altering the specific temperature and humidity conditions required by this high-altitude endemic frog.
Habitat
This species inhabits cloud forests and montane humid forests at elevations between 2,800-3,200 meters in the Cordillera Oriental of Peru. It is typically found in leaf litter and low vegetation within primary forest environments that maintain high humidity and stable temperatures.
