About Leptodactylus didymus Heyer, García-Lopez & Cardoso, 1996
Leptodactylus didymus, commonly called the Madre de Dios thin-toed frog, is a species of frog belonging to the family Leptodactylidae. This species is native to Bolivia, Brazil, and Peru. It is a terrestrial frog that inhabits primary and secondary rainforests, and can sometimes also be found in urban areas. It has been recorded at elevations ranging from 0 to 450 meters above sea level. Confirmed populations of this frog have been documented in several protected areas, including Brazil's Tambopata National Reserve, Parque Ambiental Chico Mendes, Reserva Experimental Catuaba, Parque Nacional da Serra do Divisor, and Parque Zoobotânico da Universidade Federal do Acre. For reproduction, this frog lays its eggs in bubble nests, producing several hundred eggs per clutch. When in the tadpole stage, individuals will gather in groups to survive periods of low water.
