Pristimantis educatoris is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is found in Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia and is similar to—and prior to its description in 2010—confused with Pristimantis caryophyllaceus.[2][3] The species was first found in 2002 while researchers were working on a way to save Panama's frogs from extinction from the deadly amphibian disease chytridiomycosis. The species was discovered in Omar Torrijos National Park in Coclé Province, Panama.[1][4]
Pristimantis educatoris is a thin, long-limbed, small species of frog. Males measure 19–20 mm (0.75–0.79 in) in snout–vent length and females 21–37 mm (0.83–1.46 in). They have a relatively large head and big eyes. Their dorsal ground colour varies from light tan to medium brown.[1]
The female guards her eggs that hatch as fully developed froglets, without free-lifing tadpole stage. Clutch size is about 20 eggs and development takes about 24–28 days.[1]
Pristimantis educatoris occur in secondary forests with a well-developed understory of palms and herbaceous plants. They are active during the night and most often found perching on leaves about one metre above the ground.[1]
