Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Asterophrys leucopus is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to northwestern Papua New Guinea where it is known from three locations: Stolle Mountain in the Sandaun Province—its type locality, and Hunstein Mountains in the East Sepik Province and the Bewani Mountains in the West Sepik Province.[1]
Description
Asterophrys leucopus are moderately large microhylids. The three males in the type series measure Шаблон:Convert in snout–vent length. A distinctive feature of these frogs, shared with the congeneric Asterophrys turpicola, is their extremely broad head, almost half of snout–vent length. The body is robust with short limbs. The colour pattern is mottled light and dark pinkish brown, with irregular black patches on dorsal and lateral surfaces; this gives these frogs a good camouflage against wet moss of their habitat. Males call from exposed positions; the call consists of a series of rapidly repeated introductory notes followed by slower terminal notes.[2]
Habitat and conservation
Asterophrys leucopus inhabit mossy rainforests[3] at elevations of Шаблон:Convert above sea level.[3][4] No threats to this species have been identified.[3]
