The dominant leaf litter inhabiting toads here in the upper Amazon Basin of Peru are known as the South American Common Toad or Crested Toad (Rhinella margaritifera). There is no doubt that this group is comprised of a complex of similar species. These amphibians can attain a size somewhere between a tennis ball and a soft ball - females are typically a little bigger than males and develop the extravagant crests that the species is known for. This one was sitting in the middle of the forest trail. This individual observed along the R??o Sucusari, Loreto, Peru, 2018. | |
