Allobates humilis

Allobates humilis (common name: Bocono rocket frog) is a species of frog in the family Aromobatidae. It is endemic to western Venezuela where it is known from the Trujillo and Táchira states.[2] Its natural habitats are seasonal montane forest and cloud forest. This locally common frog is associated with temporary ponds. It is threatened by habitat loss; the lagoon at the type locality (near Boconó) has already disappeared.[1]
