Leptodactylus paranaru is a species of frog belonging to the family Leptodactylidae. This species is endemic to Brazil. It has been observed by scientists in lowland forests, grasslands, and temporary water bodies including ponds and flooded areas. Recorded elevations for this frog range from 0 to 500 meters above sea level. Scientists think it may have some tolerance to human-caused disturbance, and its confirmed range includes protected parks. This species reproduces in temporary bodies of water, where it constructs a foam nest on the water surface to hold its eggs.
