Anomaloglossus ayarzaguenai is a frog. Scientists found it in Venezuela.[2][3][1]

Home

This frog lives near streams in forests. Scientists saw the frog in exactly one place, Cerro Jaua. They saw it about 1600 meters above sea level.[2][1]

Scientists saw this frog inside Jaua-Sarisariñama National Park, a protected place.[1]
